10 Movie Remakes You Didn't Know Were Coming In 2019

3. Dirty Rotten Scoundrels/The Hustle

1988's Dirty Rotten Scoundrels was already partly a remake of the Marlon Brando and David Niven comedy Bedtime Stories, but now it's set to be retold again in 2019's The Hustle.

Following the same basic premise of two cons concocting a get-rich-quick scheme by way of ripping off a rich heiress, the upcoming remake is not only set to update the story in a modern setting, but also gender swap the characters.

As a result, both Anne Hathaway and Rebel Wilson are taking over the roles of the two cons, while Alex Sharp will be the tech billionaire they're trying to steal from. To make the project even weirder, it's also the directorial debut of Chris Addison, best known for his role of Ollie in The Thick of It.

Of course, gender-swapped remakes like Oceans 8 and Ghostbusters have been a source of contention, but they have been successful, with the former in particular being a pretty damn solid continuation of an old franchise (which also weirdly enough starred an outstanding Anne Hathaway).
