"Cool Runnings" actor Rawle D. Lewis says it's time for a reboot of the classic 1993 film -- telling TMZ Sports it should represent the Jamaican women's bobsled team this time around ... and Lupita Nyong'o should have the starring role.
Of course, the OG flick was a Disney adaptation of the story of the Jamaican bobsled team's appearance in the 1988 Winter Olympics.
Lewis tells us he wants to see the story hit the silver screen again -- with the focus on the women's team.
"People don't realize that women [bobsledders] also did well," the Cool Runnings actor told us this week.
