MacGyver Coming to the Big Screen
 

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."

Probably going to be a lame movie....

I would go see it no matter how bad the reviews were. MacGyver was AWESOME

correction: MacGyver IS awesome.

totally agree with that 100%

:1orglaugh


Good call :thumbsup

I heard he filmed the entire movie with only a pack of chewing gum and 2 paper clips.

so will Richard Dean Anderson be in it is the big question..... and even a bigger question, will he grow his mullet back

I don't think he ever cut it

:pimp :1orglaugh

He did cut it eventually :P

RDA is awesome, but i've grown on him in Stargate series :). Really wondering will he star in it, but i doubt it, he's quite old now :P

What a classic!

There you go...

McaGyver was funky!

Can't wait for the first one

that movie will fucking suck

It will only work if it also features MacGruber

So a campy tv show that is continually laughed about and made fun of is somehow going to translate to box office numbers. Ok.

Do they even TRY anymore? "Oh people know this name" "good enough, slap it together while I play golf" "yessir".

Best intro ever!!

MY PREDICTIONS:

Richard Dean Anderson will make a cameo...it will be amusing...but pointless.
Main actor will be a teen heart-throb that sucks at acting...will ham it up.
Cheesy plot.
Overall box office poison.
DVD sales of the old TV show will increase.
