Can A SUPER FLY Remake Rise Up?

What isn’t being filmed or set in my back yard? Where the 1972 original was set in Harlem, the 2018 remake takes place in Atlanta. While IMDb credits the screenplay being based on the 1972 version, after watching the trailer for the original and then the 2018 remake I’m not seeing it.

That’s some high-gloss production with a lot of splashy boom boom. Of course, Joel Silver is producing so maybe not a coincidence. Also, this seems more of an origin story/getting the gang together whereas Super Fly was more a character study. But what do I know? I live on the West Side.

SuperFly lands on your plate June 15th.
