The director told DS that he would be keen to make the film with his Ugly Truth and Killers leading lady Katherine Heigl, but feels that it would require a fresh approach to the story.
"I don't think I'll be doing Romancing The Stone," Luketic said. "It would be great, but it would have to reinvent something that's so loved. I'd love to do it with Katherine, but it'd have to be a fresh and different approach."
Heigl added: "It's hard to remake a classic like that. It's so great, there's nothing wrong with that movie; not a piece, not an inch, not a frame."
Discussing the idea of reteaming with Heigl on his Barbarella remake, Luketic said: "She may be coming to you from a galaxy far, far away!"
"Not if I have to do any action!" Heigl joked.
