Fresh off of a huge weekend gross from 300, actor Gerard Butler is now lined up to star in the remake of John Carpenter’s classic 1981 film ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK. And thank God! – it’s only been .0000000007 seconds since I last came across news about a remake and I was starting to get worried! I was afraid that Hollywood was going down a more original path, but thankfully not.
Butler would reportedly play Snake Plissken, the eye-patch wearing bad-ass who goes to the inescapable maximum security prison that used to be the city of Manhattan, all to save the President of the US.
