The classic thriller from the 90s, The Hand That Rocks The Cradle, is set to receive a major reboot! This iconic cult film has been a fan favorite for years, and the news of a remake has caused quite a stir among its loyal followers. Originally released in 1992, the movie introduced us to the unforgettable character of Peyton, played by Rebecca De Mornay. Peyton, a disturbed woman, takes revenge on the family of her late doctor husband who committed suicide after being caught assaulting a pregnant patient. The story follows her as she poses as their nanny and attempts to take over the role of the mother.
Alongside De Mornay, the star-studded cast also includes Ernie Hudson, Julianne Moore, Matt McCoy, and Madeline Zima.

As with any remake, there are mixed reactions from fans. Many are criticizing Hollywood for running out of original ideas and relying on old films for inspiration. Others are excited to see a modern take on the story. Some fans took to Reddit to share their opinions, with one user expressing their initial excitement at the casting of Maika Monroe but then losing interest upon hearing it was a remake. Another joked that at this rate, we may even see a remake of "Titanic." However, others are eager to see Monroe's performance and are hoping the remake will do justice to the original.
The Hand That Rocks The Cradle was a huge success when it first hit the screens in the 90s, and it continues to resonate with audiences today. The film received high praise from critics and viewers alike, with a 66% critics score and a 61% audience rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
