Y’all can’t spell wonderful?

Please. No need to remake a classic with 21st century actors just because. You don’t replace Jimmy Stewart nor the other actors who were all legends. Donna Reed. I mea. Really It’s a table read but let it go at that

3 Jean Smart

Horrible Bosses 3?

What is a wonder life? Nobody proofreads any more.

SneakersOToole and roczil 😁

This is a brilliant start. Nothing can replace the character of the original but shouldn’t everyone have an opportunity to connect with their GB?

Love Jean Smart!! Excellent actress and so beautiful!!

I heard Chris Pratt was going to voice over all their parts.

A table read for charity is a wonderful idea. I'd watch or listen. I'm just glad it isn't a re-make of the movie.

NOOoooo! Leave it alone!

Excellent !!!

A great production that will include HamillHimself

Amazing cast. Best not mess this up.

'I was saving this money for d-vorce, if ever I got a husband.'

In this version, George kills himself and Pottersville becomes the adult playground Clarence showed. Bars, gambling, nightlife, fun!

MrJCLynch bromf3 George Wendt! 😂

Wow…jasonsudeikis

That's what I like about Hollywood they are soooo creative...

No ..just no! Why does Hollywood think that they need to 'improve' classics ? This movie has stood the test of time and even though there are many in the cast that are great actresses and actors..not in this movie. Won't be watching...

In Seneca Falls?

HOLY FUCK

I love the idea of a table read of It's a Wonderful Life but hate that they're using Jason Sudeikis as Georgie Bailey.

This sounds, well, wonderful!! ☺️
