The Plot:
Plot details are being under wraps, so it’s we don’t know how much of the original movie will appear in the reboot. That said, as we commented, Brett Haley will be directing the project and in a interview with Deadline, Haley teased this would be a ‘reimagining’ of the movie.
In her words, “13 Going on 30 is one of those rare, perfect films,’ Haley said. ‘Funny, emotional, deeply human, with unforgettable performances from Jennifer Garner, Mark Ruffalo, and Judy Greer. I’m a longtime fan, so stepping into this reimagining comes with tremendous responsibility.”
