Sheesh!
That uptight yuppie scumbag is soooo not Magnum. Magnum is a totally relaxed character. What's next.. George Wendt as Higgins? Miscast.
Clooney is slated to play Magnum PI but there will be some rewrite from the original series.
Magnum will be a Vietnam draft dodger instead of a former navy officer. Will drive a hybrid instead of a sports car. And will live in Vermont instead of Hawaii.
He will also have a drug problem, a gay son and Mr. Higgins will be a cross dresser.
The perfect Hollywood film.
