Innovative soldier MacGyver is getting the Hollywood treatment, with a feature film confirmed as being in development. The TV show ran for 7 years, starring Richard Dean Anderson. Two made-for-TV films were also made after it was cancelled.
The original TV show starred Richard Dean Anderson. The film will be produced by Raffaella de Laurentis, who is the daughter of Dino de Laurentis. MacGyver series creator Lee Zlotoff is also on board as a producer.
The film will be distributed by New Line Cinema, who said: "We think we're a stick of chewing gum, a paper clip and an A-list writer away from a global franchise."
