Dude died in 1955. Who would even be excited about this, 80 year olds?

This movie is going to flop and hopefully Hollywood will learn the right lesson from it.

I'm in my 40s and I love James Dean. But I don't love a guy who looks and sounds like James Dean. I love the really talented actor James Dean who tackled his few roles in an incredibly charismatic and engaging way. I don't want to see an AI's interpretation of that.
