Not too long ago I posted about news that David Hasselhoff had approached Orlando Bloom to appear as the son of his character in the upcoming Kight Rider project. Seems even the Hoff will not be in the film. But this is news I didnt expect to hear.
The scooper says Hasselhoff is going around mentioning that he’s in the film in an attempt to drum up interest. At the moment though, he is not involved – in any capacity.
“This isn’t the first time that he has tried to launch interest in the movie behind Glen’s [Larson] back. Hassellhoff made Knight Rider 2000 with Universal without Glen’s involvement and we all know how well that went over right?
“There is no legal obligation stating that Hassellhoff needs to be involved with the movie. If you’re aware of the delicate relationship between David and Glen, you’ll see why Glen isn’t all that thrilled to invite David back”, says the Aint it Cool News scooper.
So the Hoff has been spending his time promoting a movie that even he was not signed to be in. Producer? Nope. So maybe he will be a consultant? Nope.
It appears that David Hasselhoff is not involved in this project AT ALL. Maybe he was acting like it in hopes of getting the studio’s attention so that they WOULD invite him to be a part of it. He is drawing the most attention to the project.
So with the Weinstiens heading this project and Hasselhoff not on the project at all, what do we have left? The Car. This could be a whole new era for Knight Rider. Spinoff into a TV show, sell some merchandise. Its all gold.
And they had Hasselhoff promote it for free. I wonder if he will keep it up?
