Hasselhoff on Rove (Australia) - Knight Rider movie
As im speaking Hassellhoff is on Rove LIve (which for you overseas ppl is a talk show here in Australia). I just had to rush online to let you know the movie is definitly in develpoment. He hints at a possible father and son team for the movie (Michael & Son). Also, he mentions that the producers or what not (in earlier drafts I assume) did not actually what KITT to talk in the movie and wanted to make it like a satire like how the Starksy and Hutch movie was. But luckily they got the rights back and the movie will be faithful to the series and us fans will enjoy it. Knight Rider also still remains the favourite show he has done.

Thanks for that.
Sadly we have heard this all before so it ain't anything new.
to be honest they only time I will believe there is a movie, is when I see it promoted with actual footage.
We have been promised this movie for years and years now.
So at the moment I am not holding my breath, because it will more than likely come to nothing.
Sad but very true!

Cool Bananas..... And Apples
I missed Rove, But I did hear that Hasslehoff was going to do a song on Australian idol?
So, We finally get a proper talking KITT?, Thats good, I was worried about it being a "Satire" and It's very good to hear that things are back on track.
I hope this movie hurries up and hope it uses the theme tune in the opening.
Can't wait, I'll be wearing my leather jacket and jeans

So do I. I love that music. I think that was something lacking from Knight Rider 2000, the intro music and the incidental music was replaced and with it the Knight Rider feel (though there were other reasons than just that).AtariKnight wrote: I hope this movie hurries up and hope it uses the theme tune in the opening.

Where is the evidence? Like one of you guy's said: "We have been waiting for this movie a long time now", YEARS in fact! If the movie is in production, then why can't Hasselhoff tell us that himself? Give us some info with good evidence, people are starting to get very frustrated!!!

I have to agree with whet on this.No proof,no footage of him saying anything.We have been waiting years.In fact about 4 years ago when I was in high school I told my friend theres a new Knight Rider movie coming out he told me "Yeah sure their is.If the movie comes out I will personaly by you a ticket to see it with you."I soooo wanted to rub it in his face but apparently that won't happen.

I believe that they are working on the film right now as we speak! I'm not convinced to 100%, though. My instincts tells me that. Perhaps they don't want to publish to much info what it regards the film at the moment. Let's wait and see, after all I have seen posts from David himself on his very own site, where he claims that they are working on a Knight Rider movie. The reason why the movie has been delayed, is according to "me" that there was so much discussions about who is going to take the role as Michael Knight and Devon Miles. Because after all, mr. Miles or Edward Mulhare has left our world and thus needs an replacement if they were to produce another movie. I know that we all have been waiting for this movie a long time now, a very long time in fact. But lets keep our fingers crossed and perhaps one day we will be able to watch it with our friends in the theaters. Remember, if anyone of you guy's have seen the Rocky movies with Sylvester Stallone. He has done 5 Rocky movies until now. The 5th movie was aired a few years ago (5 i think). Recently I read in the newspaper that he is going to do the 6th one!!! It took him 5 years!!! What happened during these years? Why didn't they air Rocky 6 a year after or so? Something must have been interfering with their contracts and stuff. I think itäs similar to the Knight Rider movie. But don't worry folkes! I'm sure we are going to have an update from David himself soon.

Are you really comparing Sly Stalone to David.Sly acted and directed Rocky and he has had alot more movies under his belt then David too.
BTW I was told by my friend that Rocky 6 will have a new guy to play Rocky and Rambo 4 was also rumored to be in the work right after the 911 tragedy.In 3 he went to fight for Afghanastan and 4 he goes back to kick there butt's LOL.

I hope this isn't entirely accurate. I wouldn't want to see another actor play the role of Devon Miles. I know different actors are used for movie adaptations/sequels all the time, but...I don't know, it just doesn't feel right to have someone else play him. He passed away in real-life, he passed away in Knight Rider 2000. Keep things consistent! Even the upcoming Superman Returns is going to use archival footage of Marlon Brando as Jor-El from the first film in 1978. (Albeit footage that was cut from the original film.) I would like to see Devon incorporated into the new movie somehow, and I think David should do the same thing and use archival footage of Edward Mulhare for the movie.Knight-Armen wrote:The reason why the movie has been delayed, is according to "me" that there was so much discussions about who is going to take the role as Michael Knight and Devon Miles.

Rocky V was made in 1990── 15 years ago. Stallone had originally planned for Rocky to die in the film (it was supposed to be its gimmick), but the studio (MGM) was not happy with the idea and Stallone was forced to rewrite the script. Many years later, a script was indeed written for Rocky VI and was planned to have a low budget ($10-15 million) like the previous films, allowing more emphasis on the script. MGM was reluctant to greenlight the project for fear that it would not do well enough in theaters, and, so far, still has yet to. Stallone wants to do it before it gets too late, if it isn't already.Knight-Armen wrote:Remember, if anyone of you guy's have seen the Rocky movies with Sylvester Stallone.

I, too, would not be happy with a new actor playing Devon, though I don't care much for the Knight Rider 2000 timeline.
I think that as Edward Mulhare has passed away, we acknowledge that within the film, either as Devon having died (peacefully) or simply moved on. I think the first works better.
Additionally, I would still like David Hasselhoff to have an action role with KITT prominant too in his original form. Though the new kid (if they must have one) can have a newer, more modern car.

I watched [and taped] the whole thing.. It was a great interview with david but as a few other people have already said he's only rehashed stuff from old interviews. I guess that's what you do when you are asked the same questions over and over again.
If i can get it done somehow i'll try to get a divx or something of the interview online so people OS can view it.. i'll ask around if anyone has a good capture card at work.
At the end of the interview, Hasselhoff gave a "gift" to Rove which was the costume that you guys have been talking about/seeing in Walmarts and stores like that. Rove immediately threw on the wig, jacket and watch and together they both striked a pose like "Michael Knight" would have done. It was hilarious!
Cheers

David did mention how the movies like Starsky & Hutch and the recent Dukes of Hazzard didn't really sit well with him and that he wanted to steer away from this type of movie. Hopefully there's going to be that slightly darker side to knight rider when it's released onto the silver screen. Hopefully it's going to be more mature in it's approach as i don't think that audiences will want more of the same "damsel in distress" like the original series was. [Not that there's anything wrong with that, mind you!].AtariKnight wrote:Thats good, I was worried about it being a "Satire" and It's very good to hear that things are back on track.

To me, D. Hasselhoff is pretty darned refreshing. lol! And he's also still a good one for showbiz, too.
I've been a longtime fan of his, and it's good I have 3 CDs of his music, and I hope to get more imported CDs eventually, but for right now, I find what I have truly enjoyable.
I hope he has all the fun in the world(while keeping sober)during his visit in Australia! Really!
This comes from someone in America who's totally into DH's acting and singing full-time. I'm not making that up!

I saw that webpage too...I was very happy to see Knight Rider Online was included to this Top DH Sites list, however when they decide to post links to "The Anti-Christ" and "The Offical David Hasselhoff Site of Worship" over davidhasselhoffonline.com, I was really shocked. I get so many Australian visitors...I was just let down that my site wasn't even included on Australian Yahoo New's HOFFice Attachments. Not to be complaining, but a lot of these "Photoshop" websites take a lot of images from my site without even asking which I don't find very funny. The least they can do is link me too.
Anyway, congrats to KR Online for being recognized!

I think one thing which needs modernising with the cars are the offensive capabilities. Considering the technolohy available, I'd like to see them equipped with things like cutting lasers, and mag pulse guns (to immobilise an fleeing/attacking enemy). It would definately make things more interesting I think.
