Spoiler TV has posted a 7+ minute piece displaying the Knight Industries Three Thousand (KITT) from NBC's KNIGHT RIDER relaunch.
The video stars Jay Leno & is cut to make it seem as if Leno & KITT are stunt driving together...evoking a disconcerting alternate reality in which Leno & KITT actually appear as leads in the same series. What wacky hijinks would ensue!

For those unaware, Universal is following up its series “Knight Rider” (1982), its TV-movie “Knight Rider 2000” (1991), its TV-movie “Knight Rider 2010” (1994) and its TV series “Team Knight Rider” (1997) with yet another “Knight Rider” TV-movie.
It’s airing next month on NBC, which last year revived another beloved sci-fi franchise with its series remake of “The Bionic Woman.”

NBC is airing a new spot for its forthcoming KNIGHT RIDER sequel/relaunch.
You can take a look at the teaser HERE.
Will Arnett is the new voice of KITT, but I'm a little confused. Is the KITT voice featured in this previous teaser (which sounds more like Arnett to me)...

NBC Universal, the same folks who brought you the reimagining of “The Bionic Woman,” is remaking “Knight Rider” as a TV-movie. If enough of you watch it, it might become a weekly series.
The TV-movie was written by David Andron, who wrote episode seven of “Raines.” It was directed by TV vet Steve Shill, who’s helmed episodes of at least two other reimagined series, the 2003 version of “Dragnet” and the 2005 version of “Night Stalker.”

We've been hearing indications for a while that Hasselhoff was in talks to reprise his Michael Knight role as a guest shot on the upcoming KNIGHT RIDER TV movie. The script definitely leaves open room for more appearances by characters from the original series - not only by Hasselhoff, but the original KITT (provided this backdoor pilot/sequel turns into a series).
We now have final word on Hoff's involvement, via this press release from NBC.
David Hasselhoff (NBC's "America's Got Talent") --

When NBC's new KNIGHT RIDER project was announced, one of the first things everybody asked was "Will Hasselhoff have anything to do with it?". And, as alluded to in previous posts, his Michael Knight character does make an appearance in the project's script.

Somehow, this one slipped through the cracks over the last few days, but we thought it was still worth mentioning all the same...
Last week, we reviewed the teleplay for NBC's forthcoming KNIGHT RIDER TV movie/backdoor pilot. Surprisingly, the script was promising. You can read that review HERE.

In the new version the cars will be able to shapeshift into other things, and there might be evil shapeshifting cars too!

Doug Liman, who previously directed the pilots for "The O.C." and "Heist" (which went to series) and "Mr. & Mrs. Smith" (which didn't) may direct.

A few weeks ago, we ran an article about the seemingly-in-endless-development KNIGHT RIDER feature project. The piece asked whether (THIS IMAGE) represented the vehicle that would portray K.I.T.T. in the new film – and discussed recent rumors that David Hasselhoff had asked Orlando Bloom to play his son in the movie…an offer that was allegedly declined. You can read the original article HERE.

Hey folks, Harry here... Usually I could care less about the latest Television show being turned into theatrical fare... but while I vainly wait in breathless anticipation for a MANIMAL movie, an AUTOMAN movie or... pant pant... a MISFITS OF SCIENCE
