Weekend Discussion: Classic Movie Remakes by Televisa, Third Edition

Since we have a remake novela ending next week, it's time once again for the Televisa Remake Game.
  • Pick a classic movie, any genre.  Title translation optional.
  • Give your dream cast for the Televisa Remake you would produce.  Actors currently under contract to Telemundo are also invited to the casting call.  Although most or all character names would be changed into Spanish ones, use the original character names for clarity.
  • Make note of any minor changes to setting, character relationships, etc.
  • Comment on any previously posted project.
  • New projects should occur at least every third post, but more frequently is good, too!
Last weekend I was watching one of the best movie mysteries ever made which had it all: Great sets, period costumes, dialogue, music, and an all-star cast. I amused myself by imagining the following Televisa cast for Murder on the Orient Express:

Hercule Poirot.............................. Rene Casados
Signor Bianchi.............................. Roberto Ballesteros
Colonel Arbuthnot........................ Jorge Salinas
Mary Debenham........................... Sylvia Navarro
Princess Dragomiroff.................... Jacqueline Andere
Hildegarde Schmidt....................... Ana Martin
Pierre............................................ Marcelo Cordoba
Doctor Constantine........................ Eric del Castillo
Mrs Hubbard................................. Daniela Castro
McQueen....................................... Daniel Arenas
Samuel Ratchet.............................. Guillermo Garcia Cantù
Beddoes........................................ Otto Sirgo
Antonio Foscarelli........................... Arturo Peniche
Count Rudolfo Andrenyi................. Christian de la Fuente
Countess Elena Andrenyi................ Angelique Boyer
Cyrus Hartman............................... Gabriel Soto
Greta Olsen.................................... Angelica Maria

Let's see I would love to see a Titanic Remake , perhaps without the tragic ending. My Cast is also probably older than the original cast but eh, i'd love to see them in this story.

Cast:
Rose Dewitt Bukater : Jacqueline Bracamontes
Jack Dawson: William Levy
Cal Hockley: Marcelo Cordoba
Molly Brown: Ana Martin
Frances Fischer: Leticia Perdigon
Old Rose: Sylvia Pinal
Brock Lovett: Fabian Robles
Captain Edward James Smith: Jose Carlos Ruiz
Spicer Lovejoy: Sergio Goyri
Thomas Andrews: Otto Sirgo
Bruce Ismay: Julian Gil
Old Jack(since in my version he Wouldn't die, BOTH Jack and Rose could be telling the story LOL): Andres Garcia.

And I would love it to be produced by Carla Estrada and written by Maria Zarratini, since both are pro's in these kind of stories.

Leticia: I love your idea of Ana Martin as Molly Brown.

Silvia Pinal would never accept ''Old Rose'' role. Maybe ''Young Rose'' or ''Mature Rose'' but nothing else. Anyway, if she doesn't take the role we all know Carmelita Salinas will, bombo!

You know Pinal could be Andrés Garcías grandmother, right?

Oh, WTHeck, she was once Ariel López Padilla's SISTER!
