Jaden Smith takes on ‘Karate Kid’

Submitted by Quin on Thursday, 13 November 2008One Comment

Now this is cute. it appears the Will Smith 10-year-old son will taking the reigns on the remake of the 1984 movie The Karate Kid. the film will be in the hands of Jerry Weintruab who did the first round of movies that launched Hilary Swank’s career who to say it will not do the same for this young star. Jaden who you be seeing in the movie “The Day the earth Stood Still” is actually a martial arts practitioner. Now to me that makes the movie more intriguing. Well who knows what to expect but if this movie gets to the theaters I sure a lot of kids will be lining up to catch a glimpse.
