According to recent media reports, the classic sci-fi American drama Knight Rider that swept the United States in the 1980s will return to making new movies. The new version of the Knight Rider movie project has made new progress. Together with the Atomic Monster Productions and Spyglass Entertainment, James Wan, director of Fast& Furious 7 and Aquaman, will be the producer of the film.
Knight Ride was first released in 1982, starring David Hasselhoff. His protagonist is named Mike Knight. After he was shot, he decided to come forward and punish evil. He cooperated with a self-made rich man to develop the smart car Kitt, and began his superhero journey.
This smart car called Kitt has a series of special features, the most prominent being fire-proof and bulletproof, with artificial intelligence that can speak people's words, and it is powerful enough to run up to 300 miles per hour. Although these functions do not seem to be too black technology now, they were already good novel concepts at the time.
Knight Rider filmed four seasons, and also derived related works. This theme was remade into a new American drama in 2008, but it only lasted for one season. There are also many discussions about new drama projects, but they have not taken shape.
The movie version of Knight Ride has also been planned for a long time, and many famous directors have been contacted, including James Gunn, the director of Guardians of the Galaxy, and Justin Lin, the director of Fast and Furious, but they have not negotiated. This time it comes to James Wan. Although James Wan is most famous for his horror film series, his Fast and Furious 7 is also well received. Obviously he is also a director who understands "car romance", but unfortunately he is too busy, he still has blockbuster projects such as Aquaman 2, so it is estimated that he cannot be the director himself, and the director candidates for the movie version of Knight Ride are still being selected.
The film currently selected TJ Fixman as the screenwriter. He is a game screenwriter. His representative works are Ratchet & Clank and Resistance Fall of Man.
