MagConaughey P.I.

mcconaughy-magnum.jpgBig news from the UK's Teletext is that, pending his capture, the savage formerly known as Matthew McConaughey may be groomed and shirted in a Hawaiian print for the upcoming big screen remake of Magnum P.I. Better yet, he may be reunited, with Sahara co-stars Steve Zahn and William H. Macy with the two playing Rick and Higgins respectively (along with Tyrese Gibson as TC the chopper pilot). And they say lightning can't strike twice!

Sahara will always live on as perfection in casting, a once in a lifetime phenomenon that could not and should not be replicated for fear of cheapening it. The Sahara cast has even been regarded as "The Dream Team," "The Beatles of movie casts," and "Christ and his disciples playing dumbass desert adventurers." But if something's going to do it respect, giving a reason for the crew to reunite (with Tyrese replacing Penelope Cruz, as many felt should have been done in Sahara), it would definitely be a remake of a campy '80s series about a Hawaiian investigator with a mustache and Ferrari, written and directed by the Dodgeball guy.
