If a remake happens, who should star?
Someone just said, Richard Gere and Julia Roberts!
I say Jake Gyllenhaal & Heath Ledger!

Adam Sandler & Jennifer Aniston.
Matthew Broderick and Naomi Watts
shareWell, it was remade in the '80's for HBO with Richard Thomas as Paul, Bess Armstrong as Corie, and Barbara Barrie as Corie's mother. I can't remember who played Mr. Valasco.
But for a big-screen remake,here's who I'd cast:
Corie- Reese Witherspoon
Paul- Ryan Gosling
Corie's mother- Jill Clayburgh
Mr. Velasco- John Lithgow
The recent broadway revival with Patrick Wilson and Amanda Peet could also work on screen. Wilson isn't a "star" yet, but he has some very good film credits to his name.

And he's not shy about appearing naked onscreen, which is a plus...
not that there's nudity in the original script but, hey...
HAHA! I too would be in complete support of that.

Spike Lee as Paul
Selma Blair as Corie
Susan Sarandon as Corie's mother
Wayne Knight as Mr Velasco
What a great flick that would be.
This is a logic free zone:

Nobody. But who cares what we say. Jennifer Aniston is a good pick for Jane Fonda. It would be nice if the guy was a bit of a dreamboat. But otherwise, yes, Patrick Wilson is a good choice - clean cut, regular guy-type and a very fine actor.

Jane Fonda should play the mother-in-law.
shareRyan Reynolds and Scarlott Johanssen
shareMy wish would be Charlize Theron and Matt Damon.
Realistically, Emma Stone and...wait for it...Orlando Bloom.

We can't be lost; we don't know where we're going.
All that matters is that we're going.
