James Dean to be recreated for new film using stitched-together body parts and electricity

Sixty years after his death, it has been announced that James Dean will appear in a new film, a Vietnam drama called Finding Jack.

He will be recreated by stitching together the body parts of a variety of cadavers and then running electricity through the body.

The technology has been developed by an insane Doctor in a crumbling old castle somewhere in Eastern Europe.

“It was a pretty exciting day when we got the call from the doctor,” explained producer Kelly Grace.

“He just screamed – ‘it’s alive! Alive!’ – down the line. He sounded a bit manic and crazy, but he was excited. We were all excited.

“We now have the technology to recreate the great old movie stars so they can appear in modern films using nothing more than the a collection of body parts found in any nearby cemetery.”

Ms Grace went on to explain what this could mean to the industry.

“It’s huge. Humphrey Bogart in a new Smurfs film, James Stewart playing against Bradley Cooper.

You could Audrey Hepburn in a sexy, adult comedy. Something that she would never have been able to do when she was working.

“I guess you’d have to use a lot of make-up to cover the stitching in the nude scenes, but otherwise that’ll be great.”

However, the first use of this technology will be the James Dean for Finding Jack.

“That’s right, our reanimated James Dean arrives on set on Monday.

“The only slight concern is that the insane doctor mentioned something about using the brain of a lunatic murderer.

“But I’m sure that won’t cause any problems.”
