Honestly there is a long list of present day actors that should not be allowed anywhere near any sci-fi movies, new or remakes: including,

Tom Cruise, Will Smith and his family, Matthew mcConneghy (and anyone else in Interstellar), Sandra Bulloch, George Clooney, and any others that have ruined potentially good movies. Although I will give Jeff Goldblume credit for "Earth Girls are Easy".

At least some of the worse actors are long gone, like Charlton Heston, remember him in Soylent Green? Planet of the Apes, and that last man on Earth movie which was later remade with Will Smith in it (what was that called?, oh yeah, Omega Man).

Some movies mentioned below should just be left alone, as remakes are usually bad.

I am leery of rumours concerning Battlestar Gallactica returning. What next, Starship Trooper? Leave them alone.
I watched the very timely "12 Monkeys" this past week when it was shown on TV, and I have to say Bruce Willis was good in the lead role along with a very young Brad Pitt, and Willis has had a fair number of reasonable sci-fi type films in his career, Surrogates, Fifth Element (comedic scifi), etc
