Thurber to direct ‘Magnum’ remake
“Dodgeball” helmer Rawson Marshall Thurber has signed on to write and direct the big-screen adaptation of the ’80s TV classic “Magnum, P.I.,” Variety reports.
The film, produced by Brian Grazer (“A Beautiful Mind,” “Cinderella Man”), will mix humour and danger, much like the Tom Selleck-starring series.
The storyline features Magnum, with the help of his former military pals, searching for a missing friend.
Casting has yet to start for the film, and there is no word on whether Selleck will star in the movie version.
