Molly Ringwald says her '80s films were 'really, really, very white,' remakes would require more diversity

Actress Molly Ringwald, who famously played in several of director John Hughes’s coming-of-age “brat pack” movies in the 1980s, said those films were “really, really, very white.”

“Those movies, the movies that I am so well known for, they were very much of the time. And if you were to remake that now, I think it would have to be much more diverse. And it would have to be, you know, you couldn’t make a movie that white. Those movies are really, really, very white,” Ringwald said at the Miami Film Festival while she was accepting Variety’s Creative Vanguard Award.
