Revolution Studios remake of the Cary Grant comedy "Mr. Blandings Builds His Dream House" is being reimagined as a sequel to the lacklustre Ice Cube comedy "Are We There Yet?" reports Variety.

Ice Cube remains the star and Steve Carr the director, but when production begins in Vancouver in June, the comedy will be titled "Are We Done Yet?". The studio is moving to lock in deals with Nia Long and the two kids from the original.

The sequel picks up the quartet when they move from the big city to the suburbs for an idyllic life. A house renovation leads to chaos, particularly when the contractor who clashes with Cube bonds with his wife and the two kids.

Actor Thomas Haden Church was going to play the contractor but is going to be recast.
