Maybe fresh new faces are called upon.

Yes! I would so love to see that. But I really can't think of two actors that could measure up to Rutger Hauer and Michelle Pfeiffer

Prequel would be great but no need for a sequel.

A prequel or a sequel is not necessary.

I would love to see a prequel of how Navarre and Isabeau meet and fall in love, how the Archbishop tried to win her but failed and seeing a sad ending with the pair become what they became. It would also give us an idea of how long the lovers have been under the curse.

Ladyhawke should be left alone.

I think a prequel would be totally uninteresting - as is generally the case with direct prequels. We know how the story ends, so for all the characters we care about from Ladyhawke, we know they survive. So there's no real tension.

Philippe's past could be included in the prequel. Maybe he crossed paths with some of them and none remember it.

I wouldn't mind a prequel. However, I would like a short by a young Philippe before he became a thief or at least before he was captured and sent to the prison. Just a short one though.
Welcome to my Nightmare- Freddy Krueger

Works for me, just got to make sure Parsons available for the soundtrack!

Who needs a prequel once you know what has happened? Also, one of the most magic charms of many (if not majority) movies is to slowly reveal the secrets of the events leading to its plot. If this is too complicated for somebody, he should keep his eyes on straight lined action movies van Damme and Bruce Lee style.
I don't know what started this prequel hysteria. Is it because the audience's level of understanding can't cope with movie stories as people of decades before managed to do without a problem? Or because the age of movie consumers became so young and they need younger heroes to identify with? Is this why we were given Young Indiana Jones (and even Tom and Jerry Kids)? Well, if someone isn't old enough for mature Indiana Jones (what age is it anyway, kindergarten?), or needs a whole movie to explain Star Trek, Planet of Apes, Twin Peaks, Cube etc, he probably should wait till gets mature enough himself, and watch Teletubbies first, then move to Tom Sawyer and Astrid Lindgren's works, and let those who are still able to walk and breath without help of machines to enjoy the art made for their age and I.Q. level.
I just expect that one day somebody asks a prequel for The Bible to be made. You know, what happened before that "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth"

These people are way too young. Rutger Hauer was about 40 when he made Ladyhawke and he wasn't hanging around with Isabeau for 20 years before they fled. People back then didn't date for years and years before getting married. Because of their situation, they probably had a year or so together, at most, before the Bishop found out about them.
Besides, Alex Pettyfer (1) can't act at all and (2) is tiny and totally lacks the physicality necessary for the role.

A prequel? I like the idea.
They could cast:
Young Nevarre - Alex Pettyfer (I Am Number Four)
Young Isabeau - Sophie Turner (Game of Thrones)
Imperious - Timothy Spall (Harry Potter)
Bishop of Aquila - Severus Snape
And director will still be Richard Donner

The people who remember the film aren't the ones who are generally receptive to prequels/sequels and reboots.
One of the best lines I've read last centuries

Why do we need a prequel?? We know exactly what happens. This just seems weird and pointless. Besides, the film is like 25 years old. The people who remember the film aren't the ones who are generally receptive to prequels/sequels and reboots.

Olivia Wilde in Michelle P.'S part.

So, who would you cast as the young Navarre and Isabeau? It would be hard to find someone as absolutely stunning as Ms. Pfeiffer, and Hauer's a very unique looking individual. But, I would totally go see it. Navarre is one of my favorite film characters of all time

Esp. now that they would need to use different actors and too much time passed too.
That Star Wars prequels would be surely better if made back then and not nowadays.
Lincoln Lee: I lost a partner.
Peter Bishop: I lost a universe!

On the surface, that would seem like a good idea, but, after the Star Wars prequel trilogy, I am almost prejudiced against prequel movies.
