A Starsky & Hutch reboot is currently in the works. FOX is developing a female-led take on the cop series which aired between 1975 and 1979. David Soul and Paul Michael Glaser starred in the original show. The 2004 feature film, starring Ben Stiller, Owen Wilson, and Vince Vaughn, paid homage to the original with a comedic take.
THR revealed the following about the plot of the potential FOX series:
The modern ‘reimagining’ of Starsky & Hutch will center on two female detectives, Sasha Starsky and Nicole Hutchinson. They solve crimes in the offbeat town of Desert City while staying true to their friendship, their awesomeness, and somehow also trying to unravel the mystery behind who sent their fathers to prison 15 years ago for a crime they didn’t commit.
Sam Sklaver (Prodigal Son) and Elizabeth Peterson (The Resident) are writing two scripts for the potential series before a decision is made. Sony Pictures Television, which as Columbia Pictures TV produced the original series, and Fox Entertainment are producing.
In 2017, a reboot of the series from James Gunn was in the works but Amazon ended up passing on the project.
