John Mulaney in Talks to Star in ‘Get Smart’ Reboot for Warner Bros.

Comments

1. Mila: that clutch was insane
2. Nova: apparently nobody has told Warner Bros that reboots aren't a thing anymore
3. Rubyreyesxo: finally someone to star in a comedy that actually lives up to its title
4. Grim Cinder: Mulaney's got great timing, not sure he's smart enough for Gettis
5. June: john mulaney would bring so much more than laughs to this role
6. 🐺 Elena M.: mulaney's right voice for Control but they should keep the '70s spy spoof tone - not remake it as a straight comedy
7. Cipher Nomad: mulaney would be great casting as get smart. his whole vibe would bring it to modern times quietly
8. Max Larp: Mulaney's got the right tone, but how do they plan on updating this?
9. Elin: oh boy, a reboot with John Mulaney? hopefully they leave some of the quirky charm intact, you can't improve a Brooks classic that easily
10. Eliassato: Mulaney's got a lot of smart to live up to with those writers attached
11. Vossnora: just hope they stick the landing on the tone - Mel Brooks' irreverence is a hard thing to reboot
12. Luna: Mulaney's got the comedic chops but this thing is going to suck if it's not cleverly written
13. Norakaur: Mulaney would be great in this role, hope they don't water down the original's quirky charm
14. Rayancohenxo: john mulaney would bring a much-needed edginess to this reboot
15. Mirage Shard: mulaney's got chops, but can he pull off get smart without Brooks and henry's magic?
16. Marek: mulaney's got the timing right though - he'd be great as maxwell smart
17. Fractal Vector: not Mulaney's most natural fit if you ask me, but I'll be curious to see how they handle it
18. Zero Corvid: apparently this get smart reboot is getting smarter by the minute with john mulaney on board
19. Glitch Serpent: why revive something that's inherently cheesy?
20. Cipher Wolf: finally someone making a real go at reviving classic comedy for the screen
21. Static Drift: never thought they'd remake get smart, but mulaney's got a knack for absurd
22. 🐺 Elena M.: mel brooks is involved with this? can't see how they'd improve on the original
23. Frost Beacon: I'm surprised Warner Bros is rebooting this - don't they have better IP to work with?
24. Lunar Sparrow: wait until they cast the villain ‍️ what's their take on control?
25. Mirage Lynx: love that they're reviving this classic, Seth Grahame-Smith is a great choice to bring it into modern times
26. Shadow Moth: Mulaney's got the same neurotic charm Brooks' Maxwell Smart had, just without the fish. I'm in if they cast someone with some actual comedic presence as Agent
27. Raviberg: not surprising Mulaney got the lead, still missing Mel Brooks' wit in a reboot
28. Mila: this project is way overdue, can't wait to see Mulaney bring it to life
29. Amirellis: apparently they're still trying to reboot everything from our childhoods now, lol
