Film audiences have heard the critique before, that too many sequels, remakes, and similar projects are released each year, with little-to-no push toward more original ideas and stories. But how much truth do these positions hold, and what would a world without film remakes look like? The hosts of Nothing New: A Remake Podcast, Andrew Linde and Justin Quizon, are joined by Alix Catherine (podcast and livestream host, The Welcome Party), Becky D'Anna (podcast host and marketing executive, Sony Pictures), and Ashley Maria (writer and director, Super Human Anxiety) to discuss the impact of remakes on the film industry, how to foster original storytelling in film, and how the best, most original stories still contain an homage to what has come before.
