Here is our titular sasspot, running through the streets of New York. Obviously we have no context for this, so I don't know if she's escaping from Miss Hannigan or just scurrying around freely. But those are fancy kicks for an orphan.

She is so cute. I hope they're able to make her plucky, and spunky, rather than lippy and annoying like that time they made Raven Symone be the new kid on The Cosby Show.

Rose Byrne here is Grace Farrell, and Bobby Cannavale is some new character described as a bulldog political adviser. Because what "Annie" really needs is more focus on Daddy Warbucks's work and aspirations. I DO hope they get Obama to cameo as himself for "Tomorrow." CAN YOU IMAGINE.

## Jamie Foxx and Quvenzhane Wallis

Speaking of whom, Daddy Warbucks has been renamed Benjamin Stacks. I mean... sure. "Daddy Warbucks" is very precious. But are we maybe trying too hard, "Annie" producers? I suppose since it's a modern retelling, they had to do something, but will half of this even make sense modernized? Other than the fact that the economy sucks and we're all poor except for Jamie Foxx?

I assume this is some ill-conceived love triangle, also, which... again, too much. Grace is dressed in the mixed colors of the old Texas Longhorns/Texas A&M rivalry that ceased to be once A&M moved to the SEC. So I like to think her character bio is, "Grace Farrell: thirty-something, efficient, smart, and a total college football traditionalist who wants to punch conference realignment in the warbucks."

[Casual Fuggerday On The Set: The "Annie" RemakeBy now, nine years into our relationship (for some of you), many of you have figured out that we love Annie. When I was a kid, I had an Annie wig, and I played Annie all the time with my friends -- always making myself Annie and them every other role, at which point I proceeded to cut any musical number that didn't involve Annie. I was a dictator-director. (But a benevolent one -- occasionally I would let one of them do "Maybe" under the auspices of being my understudy in need of rehearsal time.)(Yeah, I was probably a jerk.) So, here are some shots of the latest remake, starring Quvenzhane Wallis and Jamie Foxx and Rose Byrne. It's just bits and pieces so far, but let's see how it looks. \[Photos: Fame/Flynet, Pacific Coast News\]![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/ffn_wallis_quvenzhane_teachff_092613_51218881.xml)](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/casual-fuggerday-on-the-set-the-annie-remake-10-2013/)
