Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle star Kevin Hart recently revealed that he would also like to remake another classic Robin Williams movie: Mrs. Doubtfire.
That said, if Hart really does end up pursuing the idea of starring in a Mrs. Doubtfire remake, he should be prepared to receive lots of backlash from hardcore fans of Williams, who would likely see the Mrs. Doubtfire character continuing without him as an affront to the legacy of the iconic actor.
With that in mind, Hart might just be as good a choice as any to try and tackle resurrecting Mrs. Doubtfire.
Any such plans for the sequel were obviously scrapped once Williams died, as it’s likely that FOX was well aware that a return of Mrs. Doubtfire wasn’t necessarily what people wanted, it was a return of Robin Williams as Mrs. Doubtfire.
