Absolutely. Give it a modern sort of update. So, I'm going off-topic and suggesting non-monster-verse ideas.


For where the growth scene takes place, have the kind of house be more reasonable and average. Take out the aliens and have her growth the result of unexpected biochemistry. Keeps it more mysterious and unpredictable. Have her outfit again more modern, just as long as it has no less rippage-potential as the '93 attire (i.e. buttons popping off).

Also, specifically with the start of the initial growth, have her ring tighten causing just a bit of pain but before it pops off change the sequence. Her toes are seen to push against the fronts of her shoes making telltale indentations, her chest pushes out just starting to pull the shirt buttons apart with an ominous groaning sound of stretching fabric, if she's sitting in a chair the chair also begins to make straining sounds from her slow mass increase. Then have the ring pop off with force, soon followed by say a watchband as the growth-clothes bursting begins to speed up. Her shoes/laces start to come apart, a button here, rip there, another button or two, her pants button, shoulder seam, feet force their way out of the fronts of her shoes, etc.

Really play up the psychology and get your money's worth.

Out of the two actresses I picked earlier I settled on Alison Brie and have been thinking about the movie with her. So thank you for this mental image
