Molly Ringwald Got Real About Why A Remake Of 'The Breakfast Club' Wouldn't Work
HuffPost
The star of the iconic '80s film did not hold back.
When it comes to a remake of “The Breakfast Club,” Molly Ringwald thinks this classic doesn’t need to be reheated.
While speaking on the panel “Don’t You Forget About Me: The Breakfast Club 40th Anniversary Reunion” last week, Ringwald and fellow panelists were asked if they could see the popular 1980s film remade for today’s audience.
“I personally don’t believe in remaking that movie,” Ringwald said. “I think this movie is very much of its time. It resonates with people today.”
Ringwald’s stance stems largely from the film’s lack of diversity. She said that it’s “very white” and pointed out the absence of other ethnicities.
“I feel like that doesn’t represent our world today,” she said.
