Because studios are creatively bankrupt.
Not only can they not conceive of making something original, but they can't even imagine retreading old ground without the exact same cast.
I commonly refer to Hollywood (mostly Disney) as the Dead Horse Beating Industry.
I dunno. I saw this play and it changed my opinion. You know The Music Man? I got to see it on stage with the woman who played the librarian love interest in the film in the cast. Her son was playing the lead in the play. Her part in the play had a lot less stage time. But it was really special to see both her and her son (who she was pregnant with during filming).
That brought me around on the cameos.
