From the Hoff's mouth
Met David today. He just turned up almost without announcement. He took over our boardroom to do various press interviews for a full five and half hours!
I got to talk to him very breifly about KR and he said that he is still trying to buy the film rights from whoever owns them. Apparently the asking price is very high. He repeated the line again about the studio wanting Orlando Bloom and turning it into a Starsky & hutch style film and how he wanted to stay true to the show.
He is serioulsy the nicest celeb I've ever met and took time out to meet everyone who wanted to say hi which was basically our entire staff of 80 people! I've never seen this normally "too cool" crowd get so excited![/img]

I love that! Now, if only he can get a word in edgewise in an otherwise heiress-ruled U.S. showbiz in Hollywood, California.....
Wishful thinking!
Anyhow, I like it whenever DH pays nice surprise visits!
I think he's a breath of fresh air compared to the stagnant air of boring showbiz going on in Hollywood these days! No joke.

Especially after he said that "we've now got it back" on the ROVE interview too.. Maybe their in final talks [fingers crossed].Knight DJ wrote:Besides I was under the impression he already had the big screen rights. Apparently he doesn't.
And wouldn't Glen A Larson have the rights to it in theory? Is he not stepping up to the plate for the Knight Rider Movie?
