Remakes are aplenty in Hollywood just now and the next has been announced...it's The Dirty Dozen!

According to Empire:

The script is being written Scott Rosenberg (Con Air) and Alias scripters Andre Nemec and Josh Appelbaum and will be co-financed by Warner Bros and Village Roadshow Pictures.

The original was great fun, with some amazing characters and a superb cast. If you haven't seen it you should, Lee Marvin, Ernest Borgnine, Charles Bronson, John Cassavetes, George Kennedy, Telly Savalas and Donald Sutherland to name but a few.

I wonder when this trend of remakes is going to end? At least you can say that with this one there looks like there could be some potential with the names behind the script, and if they throw a big cast at it like the Oceans crew then it could be a pretty cool film. Plus it's an older movie anyway, this habit of remaking films that aren't even ten years old yet is really getting me down. Could this be somewhat different?
