Popular shock-jock Howard Stern ("Private Parts") mentioned several years ago that he was planning to produce a remake of Bob Clark‘s original "Porky’s," and it now looks like the project just might be moving forward: Mr. Stern has partnered with producer Paul Bronfman to bring "Howard Stern’s Porky’s" to the big screen.
Mr. Bronfman indicated that the new screenplay is "on its fifth or sixth draft" — which is probably four more drafts than a remake of "Porky’s" really needs. But with Howard Stern involved, at least we won’t have to worry about the possibility of the new "Porky’s" being rated PG-13.
