When they run out of original scripts, they resort to taking ideas from television.
Universal Pictures is making an adaption of the ’80s TV show Magnum P.I., which starred the perpetually mustached Tom Selleck.
Selleck played a detective with a Navy Seal background. And set to take his place in the movie version is?
Matthew McConaughey!
Entertainment Weekly is reporting that McConaughey was offered the role of Thomas Magnum.
McConagay is said to be reading the script from the movie’s writer and director, Rowson Thurber, who also worked on Dodgeball.
Mateo should be deciding shortly if he will be confirming the role.
Would U go watch Magnum P.I. if McConaughey was in it?
We’d rather see Fletch, Jr.!
