Jay-Z also famously created his own variation on the famous Annie tune "It's the Hard Knock Life" a few years back, and he will reportedly lend his musical talents to this new cinematic musical as well. Presumably that means Jay-Z will significantly re-work the film's songs, so as to infuse them with a more contemporary feel and sound. Jaden Smith has already benefited from his father's fame, having been given his own (successful) starring vehicle last year - in the form of another remake, The Karate Kid. Likewise, Willow Smith has already started a career in musical performance (see: "Whip My Hair") and looks to benefit professionally from headlining Annie. Karate Kid surprised many a moviegoer last year by being a solid reworking of a much-loved story - so maybe Annie can do likewise.ĭespite candidates like Glee 's Ryan Murphy being courted as a potential director, there is currently no one officially onboard to helm the new version of Annie. Look for that to change in the relatively near future, as pre-production on the project really gets underway.
