A 1992 classic is being remade, and here's everything you need to know about it. If you haven't already heard, there's a 2023 version of White Men Can't Jump starring Jack Harlow and Sinqua Walls that's set to premiere on Hulu, and while some may be on the fence in regards to remakes (especially those coming from classic films), we're actually excited to see what this one is about. Today, we'll give you the scoop on everything we know about the White Men Can't Jump remake, from the release date to the cast, trailer and more.

Here's the important thing to remember with remakes—you have to go in with the mindset of not trying to compare the film too much to the original—a tough ask considering it is remake, but something that has to be done to give the movie a chance of standing on its own.

Remakes are something that has been happening since the development of films. Take Dracula for example, the original movie was released in 1931 which means every Dracula movie that has come out since then (1992, 1995, and 2000 for example) has been a remake of that 1931 version. And yet, they've been able to achieve success because people were willing to give the modern versions a chance without too much comparison to the original.
