Man from U.N.C.L.E. Remake a comedy?

I don't think the original was a comedy. Ugh, usually when remakes inject the comedy genre, they suck b@11$.

Spy movies based on silly acronyms would be hard to sell as serious. But, why cast Henry Cavill and Army Hammer if it is a comedy? If it were one, I'd expect them to cast a comedian like the Get Smart movie did.
