Not a remake or remaster or rerelease of something old, but something inspired or influenced by something either popular or a cult classic. Also this could extend to hardware/tech too, not only media.

Ive tried redox before, its in a very basic state, ive never gotten it to boot on real hardware and there are only a few basic utilities and Netsurf installed

Yeah, building an OS is a lot of work. It may be a while (if ever) before Redox is a daily driver; it took Linux 10 years before it was a viable option, and another 10 before it was common... and that was back when there was far less hardware to support. Uphill battle, like I said. However, it's actively developed, has more than one contributor, and ticks the requested boxes: Rust, micro, modern.
