Hollywood gender shock
Sandra Bullock and George Clooney rewrote their new movie Our Brand is Crisis to put a woman instead of a man in the lead role (see page 38). Here are 10 more well-known movies that could benefit from a gender flip:
1. Ghostbusters (Okay, so this one's already happening.)
2. Die Hard
3. The next Bond film
4. Star Wars
5. Alien vs Predator
6. Ocean's 11 (or Ocean's 14?)
7. The Fast and the Furious
8. Brokeback Mountain
9. Mr Bean - The Movie
10. Twelve Angry Men
