You didn’t expect to have Jaden Smith be Daniel LaRusso but we now know that his name is “Dre” and he’s a video gaming skateboarder. He moves to China with his mother (who takes a big job at a local company) is from there it’s pretty much beat-for beat the original movie. Evil dojo, dickhead local and a Mr. Miyagi wanna-be named Mr. Han (that’d be Jackie Chan’s character).
There’s plenty more on the script at Moviehole, who’s scooper says it reads pretty well actually. Could it be true? Check it out and see for yourself. Or you could just head to Crackle and watch the original film again.
