Hart’s Hartbeat Production and Smith’s Westbrook Studios will produce the film, while Aeysha Carr — whose TV credits include “Brooklyn 99” and the upcoming Hulu series, “Woke” — will write the script in her feature debut.

Per Variety, the remake will be “a modern update of the original, with Smith and Hart playing characters who are forced to team up to tackle travel obstacles to get home to their loved ones.”
