Jennifer Lopez is in talks to remake the 1987 Kurt Russell / Goldie Hawn comedy, Overboard for Will Smith’s Overbrook Entertainment and Columbia. Garry Marshall directed the original, which centered on a snooty, spoiled woman who
falls off her yacht and is taken to the hospital by a local,
morally challenged carpenter. When she wakes up with amnesia, he
convinces her she is his wife, thereby getting a free housekeeper
for his four boys. Adam Cooper and Bill Collage worked on the current script, as did
Leslie Dixon.
J.Lo, who’s been out of action for a few years to take care of her children and husband, Marc Anthony (he wasn’t injured or disabled, he just needs taking care of), is getting back into the film game, with her next project, The Back-Up Plan, which opens April 23rd.

The Back-Up Plan? BEEEEEP, BEEEEP, BEEEEP… Is this another reference to her butt?
Kind of surprised they haven't pegged Kate Hudson and Matthew McConaughey to do this one already.
Wasn't Overboard also a remake?
The fucking carpenter didn't taker her to the hospital. He picked her up after her douche hubby decided to abandon her there. Watch the fucking movie before synopsisizing it! Also: Leave perfect movies alone. And fuck Jennifer Lopez…
Lopez just needs to stop this BS and get into porn already. She's got the body and roughly an equal amount of talent to any porn star.
Spoken like a true champ.
#4 has a good idea there. "Fuck Jennifer Lopez". Don't mind if I do.
Just to say it…as I've said it repeatedly to people I know when….can we PLEASE STOP WITH THE REMAKES. It's getting really….really old.
