- HOLLYWOOD (Variety) - Director Doug Liman ("The Bourne Identity")
is helping to develop an update of the 1970s action classic "CHiPs"
for NBC. Unlike the original, which starred Larry Wilcox ("Jon")
and Erik Estrada ("Ponch") as two motorcycle cops in Los Angeles,
the update will be set in San Francisco.
- "At the end of the day, it's still a show about guys who ride
extremely fast motorcycles for a living," said Liman.
- In an unusual move, two scripts are being developed for the project:
one by scribe Natalie Chaidez ("Thieves," "New York Undercover"),
another by the writing team of Martin Kunert and Eric Manes (MTV's "Fear").
Rick Rosner, who guided the original series, is on board as executive
producer.
- The project is set up at Warner Bros. TV, which brought in Liman's
Hypnotic production shingle.
- "The way (WBTV chief) Peter Roth pitched it to us, the goal is
to find a way to honor the quiet heroes (of the California Highway Patrol)
without getting heavy-handed," Liman said, noting the new show
will be set in San Francisco.
- The "CHiPs" project is one of a half-dozen being developed
by Hypnotic, which Liman co-founded with former NBC Studios executive
David Bartis about two years ago. Liman has set aside time this spring
to direct at least one of the projects, depending on which scripts go
forward as pilots.
