The reboot of the "Leprechaun" franchise, "Leprechaun: Origins," bows in March, as a co-production with Lionsgate and is set to star WWE's Hornswoggle.Yes, Hornswoggle has been cast as the Leprechaun. Don't know if I like this choice or not. I'd prefer Warwick Davis return, as would many of you.
Even though this is being billed as a remake, the new title would suggest it's a prequel -- but most likely, it's probably more of a reboot. Either way, I am mildly excited for this project...and completely thrilled that this is not taking place "in the hood", or in Vegas or space. Take this shit back to O'Grady farm!
