A couple weeks ago New Line Cinema won rights to remake Escape From New York with 300 star Gerard Butler attached to star. But what does Kurt Russell, the star of the original film think of all this? We found out.
“My standard joke is, ‘Oh, my God, wait until stuntman Mike hears about this?’ Look, they’re going to do their movie. Our movie is there, it’s there to be seen. It’s always been there and it’ll always be there,” Russell told /Film at the Grindhouse Junket. “I think that the motion picture business is not a sacred business and I think that everyone should do what they want to do.”
