Willow Smith to Remake Annie?

It looks like the Smith Family might be remaking another childhood favorite:  Annie!  This time however it looks like it will be Willow starring in the leading role.  Annie was one of my favorite movies as a little girl.
I L-O-V-E-D IT! I have a special connection to the movie.  I'm glad to see it being re-done.  Can't wait to hear Willow's version of Tomorrow.  And how will they re-do the famous red dress?
Dad Will is said to be producing the re-make -via- his and Jada's production company, Overbrook Entertainment.  Sony Films will release it.  According to Variety, Jay-Z will "oversee"  the music for the film through Roc Nation, which is also Willow's record label.  Jay has a bit of history with the film's music, as his first big pop hit, Hard Knock Life, samples one of the musicals biggest numbers.
