Many popular shows/movies have been remade and/or rebooted. I'm wondering what is the most recent original to have been remade.

To clarify the terms of the question:
Sequels do not count as reboots. (Jurassic World is a sequel to Jurassic Park)
The original is defined as the first time any live actor portrayed those characters on camera in any capacity. Spiderman has been rebooted, but Danny Seagren was the first Spiderman. Therefore, the "original" is considered to be 43 years old.
The new Transformer movies don't count as there wasn't a previous live-action version.
Original Ghostbusters was 1984 and I don't think the female version is a sequel. The original actors showed up as different characters (unless I'm mistaken). So that original is 34 years old.

The youngest most recent one would be spiderman.

2014 for amazing spiderman 2, and homecoming was released in 2017, while introduced in 2016 through civil war.
It was 2007 for the last raimi spiderman before the first reboot came out in 2012.

I'm not asking for the youngest reboot. I'm asking what the youngest original is (original meaning something that has been rebooted)

As the question defines it, 1974 was the first time Spiderman was portrayed by a live actor therefore the original is 43 years old.

The Magnificent Seven 1960
The film is an Old West-style remake of Akira Kurosawa's 1954 Seven Samurai

Was rebooted last year?

Probs older examples but this was the first i could think of

Do movies rebooted as series count? if that's the case, taken with liam neeson came out in 2008, and was rebooted as a prequel series in 2017. The last taken movie coming out in 2015.
The series itself is essentially set to reboot again for it's second season.

Then there's jason statham in the transporter which came out 2002, which was then rebooted as a series in 2012 and then rebooted again as another movie in 2015.

Then there's hitman with Timothy Olyphant in 2007, that was rebooted in 2015. (this would be the youngest original)

yes



If it's a prequel then it's disqualified.



Current leader in the clubhouse right there. Interested to see if anyone can come up with something younger.

Does the video game not count as the original though? The only reason those 2 movies are close together is because they went off of an already established video idea (meaning not original).
RPG video games are basically just interactive movies.

Nope, specified in the first post that the original was the first live action depiction.
