Frontmatter -- Contents -- Introduction -- I. Intra-medial Intracultural Remaking -- The Remade Prequel – Rise of the Planet of the Apes (2011) -- Exit Gender, Enter Race -- (Re)Making Men in the 1950s and 2000s -- II.

Summary: From »Avatar« to danced versions of »Romeo and Juliet«, from Bollywood films to »Star Wars Uncut«: This book investigates film remakes as well as forms of remaking in other media, such as ballet and internet fan art. The case studies introduce readers to a variety of texts and remaking practices from different cultural spheres. The essays also discuss forms of remaking in relation to neighbouring phenomena like the sequel, prequel and (re-)adaptation. »Remakes and Remaking« thus provides a necessary and topical addition to the recent conceptual scholarship on intermediality, transmediality and adaptation.
