Why try to remake this? They were only good the first time around because Sellers was brilliant. Steve Martin isn't gonna cut it and hasn't done anything funny since Planes, Trains and Automobiles.
But if I absolutely had to make it, I would put Kline in the lead role. He'd be funnier and he'd have an authentic ridiculous French accent.
