[This site](https://www.pajiba.com/film_reviews/dream-casting-ryan-reynolds-remake-of-clue.php) has some interesting ideas for casting, but I’m sure we can do better. ---

I’d only be interested if it were Muppet Clue. ---

It’s not typecasting… You could call it “Red Noticing”. That movie was basically Reynolds, The Rock, and Gal Gadot playing every character they ever play. ---

Unrelated, but the Rock has built up such a resume of playing good guys that I think he could do a really creepy villain. ---

Ha, the Clue remake is just a red herring. ---

Instead of a remake of _Clue_, they should do _Kill Doctor Lucky_. ---

Is it going to have multiple endings? eta: I didn’t think the original was perfect. I might prefer a more polished version. ---

**That site has a popup that demands I disable my ad blocker (which I do not have, except the built in Chrome protections), complete with a handy button to click. I would consider that extremely dangerous.** I really loved the original, fantastic cast. How can it be improved? ---

I hate this idea so much. I… flames… flames… on the side of my face. (Actually I think it’s a fine idea, if uninspired. I think people hate on the idea of movie remakes far too much.) ---

Okay, but that still means clicking on a possible dangerous pop-up. ---
