This would be a terrible idea because they would make it with Twilight lite cast and that ruins the story

IMO, this is a movie that should not be remade. It's a classic.

This movie remade could never live up to the original- there aren't even enough good actors out there nowadays to even do it. The cast then was perfect. Maybe if each actor had a son???

I hope that if they do remake they don't do something stupid like make it all black or all girls.

Val Kilmer took part in the casting process for The Outsiders but ended up not doing the movie.

His son Jack Kilmer would be a good choice for one of the greasers. I think he is a natural.

I agree with those who say this should NOT be remade. It's a classic. And what would be the point of a remake? Its a straight drama, modern film equipment and CGI would do nothing to improve upon this film, and no way they could find such an incredible cast like they did. No, a remake will only sully the image of this iconic movie.

Well besides the fact that all these guys are like 40-60 years old now, Two-Bit was played by Emilio Estevez...So uh probably can't play Steve as well.
