Jay-z And Will Smith Working On Remake Of Annie With Willow Smith by kay29000(m): 9:06pm On Jan 21, 2011
Willow Smith is signed to Jay-Z's ROC NATION label, and her father is Will Smith, so it is clear this girl is going places. Her boss and her father are currently working on the Remake of the 80's classic movie, Annie, which she is going to be staring in. Hmm! I think Will Smith is really using his muscle in Hollywood to a stretch- first his son played in the Re-make of Karate Kid, which was originally played by a white kid, and now, this thing with Willow.




I have studied the lives of both Jay and will smith, and the code they live by, which i also adhere to is that anything is possible as long as you put your mind to it. I am just really happy for the privilege this little girl has with a father like will, and THANK GOD she has been living up to the hype




Below is the story:

Sony considering backing the movie-musical which would see Smith producing and Jay working on the music

Will Smith has already helped one of his kids become a movie star, producing last year’s The Karate Kid which starred son Jaden and took in over $350 million dollars in worldwide box office. Now, according to Variety, the former Fresh Prince has plans to develop another remake starring his daughter, Willow. The project this time out is Annie, the 1982 movie adaptation of the hit Broadway musical. Will Smith’s production company, Overbrook Shingle, is currently in talks with Sony.

Jay-Z, the head of Willow’s label, Roc Nation, is also involved. He is currently in conversations to work on the music of the proposed film. Jay would seem to have plenty of experience with the material having scored one of his most iconic hits when he teamed with The 45 King for “Hard Knock Life”, a song which sampled the song “It’s The Hard Knock Life” from the original film production of Annie.

Since the project is still in the early stages details are scant. But DX will keep you posted as more news becomes available.
