A favorite movie of the 1990s may be getting a remake by none other than "The Lost City" actor Channing Tatum. The 1990 film "Ghost," which originally starred Patrick Swayze, Demi Moore, and Whoopi Goldberg, is apparently on the actor's radar, according to a January interview with Vanity Fair.
The revelation came during the interview as Tatum was making pottery with journalist Jessica Pressler, an obvious nod to the film's iconic romantic scene between Swayze and Moore. "Now I know why they put this in 'Ghost,'" the "Magic Mike" actor said as he molded clay on the pottery wheel. "This whole process is very, very sexual." Tatum went on to briefly and vaguely explain that his production company, Free Association, has obtained the the rights to "Ghost," and that he has plans on remaking the film with certain plotlines altered to be more modern.
While Tatum is being tight-lipped about the upcoming project,...

1990's Ghost is probably most famous for making pottery wheels seem sexy, and for its performances, including those of Patrick Swayze, Demi Moore and an Oscar-winning Whoopi Goldberg. It's long been considered a cult favourite, but that doesn't necessarily make it remake/reboot proof, and Channing Tatum has plans to do just that.
Speaking in a new Vanity Fair profile to promote Magic Mike's Last Dance, Tatum admitted he and his creative partners have the rights to Ghost and are developing a new version.
"But we’re going to do something different. I think it needs to change a little bit," referring to some of the more problematic, stereotypical attitudes and portrayals of the original. He doesn't specify what needs to be altered, but it sounds like he's enthused about the idea of the new movie.

Wow! I did not have a Ghost remake from Channing Tatum on my 2023 Bingo card, folks, and yet, here we are. According to a Vanity Fair cover story, Tatum’s production company, Free Association, owns the film rights to the supernatural drama released in 1990, starring Patrick Swayze, Demi Moore, and Whoopi Goldberg.
“We actually have the rights,” Tatum said to Vanity Fair. “Yeah, we have the rights to ‘Ghost.'” The report also says Tatum could play Patrick Swayze’s role in the remake.
“But we’re going to do something different,” Tatum added, referring to changes he plans to make to the original film’s harmful stereotypes.
Jerry Zucker directed Ghost from a script by Bruce Joel Rubin. Patrick Swayze, Demi Moore, Whoopi Goldberg, Tony Goldwyn, Vincent Schiavelli, and Rick Aviles star in the romantic fantasy comedy. Zucker’s 1990 classic revolves around Sam West (Swayze), a murdered banker whose...
