“Straw Dogs” To Be Remade
In another sign that Hollywood is bereft of new ideas, Screen Gems has set Kate Bosworth (pictured) and Alexander Skarsgard to star alongside James Marsden in “Straw Dogs,” a reimagining of the 1971 Sam Peckinpah film. Rod Lurie wrote the script and will direct. At this rate, they’ll be remaking other classics of that era — “A Clockwork Orange,” “2001: A Space Odyssey” — before we know it.
