I’m not a big fan of Ben Affleck, actually no fan at all, but this has a strangely “right” quality about it.
News from Dark Horizons is that he’s set to star as the lead cop, Steve McGarret from the TV show Hawaii Five-0.
Sources hint that none other than Ben Affleck looking to take on the part of Steve McGarrett, made famous in the Sixties and Seventies by Jack Lord. The source says “Ben is ideal as he mixes the serious with comedy. All we have to do now is find him a leading lady.”
George Nolfi [“Ocean’s Twelve”] is penning the script that will closely follow the format and tone it seems.
Strange if that turned out to be Jennifer Garner? Actually I could get quite excited by this movie. I remember the TV series with a lot of fondness, and I think this is one show that wouldn’t be harmed by a big screen remake. Anyone else feel like that, or would this be another terrible crime?
