Oh my goodness, a new Walton's movie is planned!

[Deleted]

I just read this, they are making a new Hollywood Walton's movie and I can't believe how miscast the cast is! Filming begins in the fall of 2016. I dunno if I want to see this with this cast of actors/actresses

Grandpa Walton: Jerry Lewis
Grandma Walton: Joan Collins
John Walton: Charlie Sheen
Olivia Walton: Courtney Love
John-Boy Walton: Macauley Culkin
Jason Walton: Justin Bieber ( I guess they chose him coz they both like music??)
Mary-Ellen Walton: Miley Cyrus
Erin Walton: Lindsay Lohan
Ike Godsey: Nick Nolte
Corebeth Godsey: Madonna
Rev Fordwick: Chevy Chase
Baldwin Sisters: Joyce Dewitt, Suzanne Somers


New Walton's film

Nice try, Dowsee, but I've been seeing April Fools jokes all over the internet this morning. And with that list of actors, I think we're better off without a new Waltons movie.

[cinlou]

I just can't imagine those actors/ actresses playing the roles. Ugghh! Happy April Fools Day!

Yeah Dowsee! It's stuff like this that cracks me up. Ya did it again buddy! 

[ForeverWaltons]

Good one Frank!

It would be fun to see Joyce Dewitt and Suzanne Somers as Miss Mamie and Miss Emily.

[e knight]

Y'know, some of those just might work.

I originally had Jack Nicholson as Grandpa and Caitlyn Jenner as Corabeth, but I changed them.

April Fools is a day for silliness!

[AuntieEm]

What about JimBob and Elizabeth? Or would they be mercifully staying with relatives in Buckingham County and avoiding this fiasco, er, fun?  ?

[tvlover]

I do not believe any of this at all. This is an April Fools' Day joke. When I saw the cast list, I knew right away that it was a joke, and I said, I am not falling for this. If this were to really happen, Earl Hamner would be turning over in his grave.

I think Caitlyn Jenner should play Olivia and maybe Kylie Jenner as Elizabeth.

This is a fun thread! Here's a list of some actors I think would do a pretty decent job in a remake.

Grandpa Walton: Sam Waterston
Grandma Walton: Tyne Daly
John Walton: Peter Coyote
Olivia Walton: Kate Capshaw
John-Boy Walton: James Denton
Jason Walton: Dennis Christopher
Ben Walton: Chris O'Donnell
Jim Bob Walton: David Harper... There is no other Jim Bob.
Mary-Ellen Walton: Mary-Louise Parker
Erin Walton: Judy Greer
Elizabeth Walton: Jessica Chastain
Ike Godsey: Patrick Duffy
Corebeth Godsey: Jean Smart  
Baldwin Sisters: Betty White and Cloris Leachman

I love your idea for the Baldwin Ladies. Betty White would be hilarious as Miss Emily!

[Deleted]

Wife said I should have picked "Mick Jagger" as the grandfather, not Jerry Lewis

I'm thinking now...Keith Richards as grandpa

[goodnight]

When I first started reading this, I forgot about it being April Fool's Day.

[tommyc]

Lol, you had me for a minute.  When I got to Charlie Sheen I became suspicious then knew it had to be a joke by the time I got to Justin Bieber.  (embarrassed it took me that long)

LOL, good job!!
