Fantasy Island: New ABC Reboot In The Works

by Regina Avalos, October 12, 2015

abc-logo

Fantasy Island may return to ABC once again. The network is currently developing the third take on this series, according to The Wrap. The original Fantasy Island aired during the 1970s with Ricardo Montalban as Mr. Roarke, the man that can make your every fantasy come true.

This time, a woman will be in charge of the fantasy granting for the series. The woman will own a San Francisco based company that helps people’s darkest and most private fantasies come true.

This will be third Fantasy Island. ABC aired a short-lived Fantasy Island reboot starring Malcolm McDowell in the role of Mr. Roarke between 1998 and 1999.

Will you watch a new take on Fantasy Island? Do you think a woman in charge of the fantasy granting is a good move? Tell us what you think.

I’d try it… liked the original. I do agree that it should be a man in charge though… Another show I’d LOVE to see revived is THE LOVE BOAT. But this time, take them to the Caribbean & not the Mexican cities. Since it’a ABC, why not put them on the Disney Cruises?

I would love to see it, if it’s good. Ricardo gave a royal mysterious strength , I don’t know if a woman can do that. It was nice to relax on a Saturday night and watch a paradise. 🙂

A woman will not work. Women watch TV more than men. Part of the fantasy of the show was for women to fantascize with a handsome, out-of-this world, man. Antonio Bandaras would probably fill Ricardo Montalban’s shoes perfectly.

That’s a really good idea for the actor, but I disagree with Rob Dee regarding the GOT actors. Herve Villechaize was amazing for the role, but I just can’t picture Peter Dinklage behaving like Herve did.

Might be good with Jon Snow ( Kit Harrington) and Peter dinklage from Game Of Thrones in the title roles! Good project for when GOT is in hiatus!

A woman will not work. Women watch TV more than men and as part of the fantasy women love to romanticize with a handsome sophisticated guy on screen. That was the attraction with Ricardo Montalban. One of the ones who will work in that role is Antonio Banderas.

Please do not have a woman replacing Richards montelbam’s role. Have a man with an English or Spanish accent… He can have a wife, but not in starring role.
Prefer a strong man with a little cute assistant like tatto.
