The Creator of This Beloved '80s Movie Turned Down Steven Spielberg and Seth Rogen’s Remake Pitch
The Last Starfighter is a beloved 1980s classic, a fun sci-fi adventure that leaned heavily into the popularity of arcade games and the nascent use of computer graphics for its special effects, to create and bring something unique to movie theaters. It was a modest success on release and has gained that coveted cult classic status since then. Strangely, it’s a film that has never seen a sequel or a remake… but not for lack of effort. Even Hollywood heavyweight Steven Spielberg was turned down by the film’s writer, Jonathan R. Betuel, one of many whom the writer has rejected.
