Update On Rush Hour TV Series

Incase you might have forgotten, they are going ahead with a Rush Hour television series.  “They” being Warner Bros.

With Bill Lawrence scripting alongside his “Cougar Town” co-creator Blake McCormick. Today, Lawrence spoke with NuketheFridge and revealed a few key details about the show.  Once again, the the story will pair a loudmouthed LAPD officer with a more reserved representative of the Hong Kong police, who Lawrence now confirms will be the same Detectives Lee and Carter.

“New plot, same characters,” he told the outlet. “A little younger, a little different, fish out of water. It’s a cool script. I’m psyched about it.”

When asked if he’s looking into casting an actor with martial arts experience, Lawrence revealed that it was not necessarily a requirement.

“The character will be a martial artist,” he said, “but you know how TV works. I’m going to go with the best actor and then I’ll make anything work.”
