Charlotte Flair to star in Walking Tall remake on USA

[Jello Biafra]

​

David Eick, one of the exec producers of the 2003 version of Battlestar Galactica and a number of its spinoffs, has closed a couple of developments with the NBCU family.

The writer/producer is developing a remake of 1973 feature film Walking Tall, which was later remade with Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson, at USA Network and a Romancing the Stone-esque sci-fi series at Peacock.

WWE star Charlotte Flair (left), who featured in Psych: The Movie, is attached to star in the reboot, which has received a script sale from the cable network and is being set up as a two-hour TV movie with the hope of future installments or as an ongoing series.

I saw Chuck in that Psych movie and she is a wooden charmless actor.

Even being a bit part player in Star Wars will damn near set you up on the convention circuit for life.

I don't know that this puts her in that stratosphere.

It doesn't, but the show's success could cause her to leave WWE for good.

On second thought, I hope it works out for her

Hollywood really scraping the bottom of the barrel to think THIS is the movie to remake...again

She saw Sasha in the Mandalorian and felt some type of way.

First it was The Rock, then it was The Chuck
