2 Legendary Stars Officially Reunite for Netflix’s Reboot of their Cult Classic Rom-Com

Collider · 3 hours ago

Netflix has confirmed that Jennifer Garner and Judy Greer are returning to the world of 13 Going on 30 as part of the streamer's reboot of the 2004 cult rom-com, reuniting two of the original film's stars behind the scenes of the new project. The reboot, first announced in March, stars Emily Bader and Logan Lerman in the lead roles and is directed by Brett Haley, who previously worked with Bader on The People We Meet on Vacation. The move continues Netflix's strategy of reviving beloved older titles for new audiences, following the success of its Little House on the Prairie remake.

Haley described the original 13 Going on 30 as "one of those rare, perfect films," praising the "unforgettable performances" of Jennifer Garner, Mark Ruffalo and Judy Greer, and said stepping into the reimagining carries "tremendous responsibility" as a longtime fan. The reboot follows Netflix's recent Little House on the Prairie revival, which drew 6.4 million views in its first four days and secured a second-season renewal despite mixed audience reviews on Rotten Tomatoes. Full casting details for Garner and Greer's involvement in the new project were not specified in the announcement.
