The best rumors are the ones that seem rather far-fetched at first glance, but slip into the realm of possibility upon closer inspection. Such a case now arises with the remake of the animal horror film “Anaconda”, which was panned by critics when it was released in theaters, but grossed an impressive $136.8 million at the box office on a budget of $45 million. could, then developed into an absolute video store hit and gained more and more recognition in genre circles.
That’s the rumor doing the rounds right now Pedro Pascal (“The last of us”) and Paul Rudd (“Ant-Man And The Wasp: Quantumania”) in the reboot of “anacondato take on the lead roles. Sounds crazy, it is somehow, but the whole thing doesn’t come out of the blue. The remake is directed by Tom Gormican, who also directed Massive Talent, starring Pedro Pascal alongside Nicolas Cage. Gormican is said to be eager to work with the “Mandalorian” star again.
And how does Paul Rudd fit into the boa constrictor hunt? Not only did Rudd star in Ghostbusters: Legacy, but he’ll be back in the sequel as well. As with the Ghostbusters movies, Sony Pictures is responsible for Anaconda. And here’s where you’d definitely want Paul Rudd to stay committed to future projects. Whether that will actually be the case remains to be seen. Like I said, this is just a rumor at the moment.
Should it really happen that Pedro Pascal and Paul Rudd are in the “Anaconda” remake, one can only hope that Pascal will take on the role of Jon Voight, who played the poacher Paul Sarone in the original – and with an overacting is that really fun as hell every time! Meanwhile, the cult animal horror, which also stars Jennifer Lopez, Owen Wilson and Ice Cube, is about a film crew who want to make a documentary about an indigenous people in the Brazilian jungle, but about an – to say the least – anaconda. is disrupted.
