Hulu's upcoming 2023 remake of White Men Can't Jump debuts with a Rotten Tomatoes score that is dramatically lower than the 1992 original.
The White Men Can't Jump remake has debuted with an aggressively low Rotten Tomatoes score. The film, which debuts on Hulu on May 19, is a remake of the 1992 film by Ron Shelton that stars Woody Harrelson and Wesley Snipes as a duo who team up to hustle people in basketball. This new iteration of the story comes from House Party remake director Calmatic and stars rapper Jack Harlow and Sinqua Walls with Teyana Taylor, Laura Harrier, and the late Lance Reddick.

How Will Audiences React to White Men Can't Jump 2023? While critics may not be responding to White Men Can't Jump 2023, it remains to be seen how general audiences react to it. The original film set a precedent for a discrepancy between critics and average viewers, as the audience score is somewhat lower, landing at 68 percent. If that negative trend continues, this remake will be in trouble, but it's possible that it could go in either direction.
There could very well be continued interest in the White Men Can't Jump story. The original film was a success in theaters, earning $90 million off a budget of around $30 million. Additionally, the film was honored with a cast reunion at the 2022 Academy Awards ceremony, which likely boosted audience awareness of the film's legacy.
There is one major indication of the potential viewership that the film will draw. Last month, White Men Can't Jump early reactions coming out of a preview screening were quite strong. Several attendees admitted they were prepared to hate the film but were eventually won over and were especially moved by one of Lance Reddick's final performances.
