With starring roles in S.W.A.T., Miami Vice, and now Fright Night, Farrell obviously doesn’t mind doing remakes.
“You have to be allowed to reinterpret things,” says Farrell, who is also starring in an upcoming version of Total Recall. “There is no world where it literally detracts from the original. Unless you want it to. And then you can go, we’ve all decided to come in and piss on the original just for the fun and because we wanted to make money. Like, ‘F**k Fright Night! Yeah! Give me money!! It’s not, we approach it as film fans and you try to make an entertaining and a significantly unique look at something that’s already been looked at.”
