The last thing that Willow Smith knows anything about is a hard knock life.  But we shall see if her acting skills can make us believers when she stars as Annie in a remake of the classic film.

I loved this flick as a kid, so I don’t know I will feel about a new version, I tend to stick with the originals.  But Sony is pretty confident in their choice,

“The time is right to bring back Annie to the big screen,” a spokesperson for Sony Pictures said in a statement. “Of course, we’re true believers in Willow’s talent and believe she will be perfect in this role.”

The clincher that will make this movie even more unlike the original: Jay-Z is providing the tunes.  This means they aren’t using the original songs.  I think they should.

What do you think?  Will you watch the remake?
