The sequel to the iconic film 'St. Elmo's Fire' is reportedly in early development with original stars expressing interest in reprising their roles. However, Adam Fields, a writer involved in notable '80s films, casts doubt on the feasibility of recreating the magic of the original. He argues that these films encapsulated specific moments in time and were character-driven rather than plot-driven, making it difficult to replicate their essence in a modern context. While Rob Lowe shares enthusiasm for the project, Fields warns that such classics might be untouchable.
I mean, I feel like most of these movies were a moment in time, and they reflected a moment in time, so I don't know how they can do anything.
I think it's really hard because none of those movies were plot-driven. They're really character-driven.
Everybody wants to do it. We're making it happen, you know. The script's getting written, and then we're off and running.
Why? I think it's really hard because none of those movies were plot-driven. They're really character-driven.
