Deadline is reporting that 20th Century Fox TV is looking to develop a reboot of Stephen J. Cannell’s classic 1980s action series “The A Team”, or as they are calling it, a “new contemporary take.” Fast & Furious producer Chris Morgan will executive produce the remake series with Tawnia McKiernan, the daughter of original series creator Stephen J. Cannell. Albert Kim (“Sleepy Hollow,” “Nikita”) is writing the script for the new show.
The outlet states that the show will take liberties with the source material and will include both male and female members of the new A Team. The team will be members of American Special Forces who are framed by a covert black ops group for a crime they didn’t commit. While trying to clear their name, the team will help those in need along the way.
The show is being described as “a fun episodic mission-of-the-week show that mixes big action-adventure sequences with compelling characters, inventive cons and lots of humor.”
