Body Heat 2010 Cast -
Background:
In August 2010, reports confirmed that HBO was developing a television remake of the 1981 film Body Heat. The project was to be written by Todd Haynes (Far from Heaven, Carol) and produced by Tony Scott (original producer). The remake was intended to update the setting from South Florida to the Gulf Coast after Hurricane Katrina. However, the project never went into production and was ultimately abandoned.
The Body Heat remake cast of 2010 was intriguing but flawed. Cooper was a strong, if different, Ned. Lawrence was a bold misfire in terms of age and essence. Without the director’s final vision, we’ll never know if they could have transcended the obvious mismatches. Ultimately, the project’s cancellation spared audiences a likely unnecessary remake—and spared Lawrence a role she was not yet right for. The original Body Heat remains untouchable.

The success of any noir hinges on chemistry, and the Body Heat 2010 cast was assembled to recreate the dangerous spark between two people whose passion leads to cold-blooded murder.
Rounding out the main triangle is Christine Chatelain as Alex. In the 1981 film, this role was the "good girl" (originally Mary Ann Simpson). Alex is the loyal, slightly obsessive friend of Rae who becomes suspicious of Sienna.
Chatelain is a veteran of syndicated television. Fans of sci-fi will recognize her from Stargate SG-1 (as Reese) or Supernatural. In the Body Heat 2010 cast, she plays the audience’s conscience—the one person who realizes that Sienna is playing Rae for a fool.
