'''Magnum, P.I.''' is a yet-to-be released
American film adaptation of the 1980s TV series of ''
Magnum, P.I.'' directed by
Rawson Marshall Thurber. It is expected to be released in
2009.
In January
2007, it was reported that
Matthew McConaughey will play
Thomas Magnum,
Steve Zahn is
Rick Wright,
Tyrese Gibson is
T.C. Calvin, and
William H. Macy is
Higgins. Many of the fans of the original series do not like the casting, and some fans of the original series would prefer a reunion of the original cast.
[1] It has been reported that
Tom Selleck, originally opposed to making a cameo in the movie, has now expressed his desire to appear in the film, but only if he personally approved of the script.
