While the news of Universal Pictures' and Imagine Entertainment's decision to bring Magnum P.I. is truly positive, we, the fans of the original show are dismayed by news that indicates that the original cast will not be involved. Tom Selleck is, in the minds of Magnum fans, Thomas Magnum. As such, it seems odd that Universal/Imagine would want to risk alienating those who have, for so long, been calling for a big-screen Magnum by casting another actor in the titular role. In addition, it seems odd that Universal/Imagine appear determined to go the route of such other recent, unsuccessful big screen adaptations of older shows (i.e., Charlie's Angels, etc.) by completely changing the very things about the original show that made it so popular. Please show some respect to both the fans, and to the original material by bringing back the original cast in the roles that they brought to life.

    • I promise to see it twice if TS gets the lead. He can't ever be imitated! He was my link to the US when I lived in NZ in the 80's. Either use the original characters, or wait another 20 years (like Mission Impossible).

    • Brian Grazer & Ron Howard, Why not pick up the story 16 years latter with Magnum in the NSA with Selleck playing the lead? You could have a huge hit with the possibility of countless sequels if the stories are done well. Magnum could be as big as Jack Ryan if not 007. Didn't Tom Clancy offer to write a script at one point. I would love to see your Magnum Project done correctly. Good Luck.

    • Yep, I sure hope they won't cast new characters. It would be appaling to me if I could not see Rick, T.C., Higgybaby, and of course, Magnum together in the film starring together.

    • The idea of not casting Tom Selleck or any of the previous cast of Magnum is the most ludicrous idea brought forth by money grabing Hollywood mogules that has ever occured.
