I can see that there could be a very interesting new version of this
story for this time.
With religious intolerance and fanaticism exacerbated by technocrats,
militarists and
ideologues proliferating terror and chaos, a pacific alien appearance
in a smartly written update could
work very well, I think.
Not that it will, necessarily.
But it's clear that this world could use a day of standing still -
absolutely.

Well casting is progressing for the remake of one of the grand-
daddies of all science fiction films:
Keanu Reeves has signed for the role of Klaatu in the remake of
DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL
........well, he certainly has a lock on alien presence in
Hollywood but I see Ralph Fiennes as a more appropriate
choice .......but why a remake seems to be the overriding question
here.
