Kristen Stewart says the new Charlie’s Angels reboot is going to be the ‘woke version’.
The star explained the reboot will feature “a whole network of angels…across the entire globe connected and helping each other.” It sounds like there will be less girl on girl crime and more female empowerment and supporting one another.
Elizabeth Banks is directing the film and playing Bosley. The role is usually played by a man so this is already a big shift from the original.
When discussing the remake to Variety, Kristen said:
“There’s a kitsch nature to the last ones that was super fun, but nowadays, if you see a woman in combat, everything should be something completely and utterly well within their ability…it’s still going to be fun and Charlie’s Angels-y, but will be current and modern.”
She concluded: “It’s kind of like a ‘woke’ version.”
The Charlie’s Angels reboot is due for release September 17th, 2019 and by the sounds of it, it’s going to be fabulous.
