And maybe with Wahlberg no less.

I always thought they were going to call it the six billion dollar man.

I don't know what it's about but it involves Peter Berg so I'm optimistic.

Ben Browder played an awesome Steve Austin.
But I can see Walberg.

I want Hancock Berg not Battleship Berg.

I want Hancock Berg not Battleship Berg.

I enjoyed both movies.

Maybe Sandra Bullock can play Jaime Sommers in the movie. Sandra already got to play a bionic person in one of the Six Million Dollar Man made for tv movies back in the 80's so having her in this movie along with Mark Wahlberg would be great.

Yaas! I agree...though a few years ago...Browder would be a top choice candidate. So would TV actor, Brad Johnson.

I so want to see this happen. As long as the don't "comedise" it like with recent big screen remakes of iconic TV shows...

I don't think I need to name names.

They might unless they make it a 70s period piece, which would be cool also.

 

[Rowsdower!]

Steve Austin for Steve Austin.

This is my fear, if you can call it that.

I'd love to see a take done largely in the vain of the show. Very good potential to do some interesting things. I'm actually surprised they haven't gotten to this yet.

 

[Rowsdower!]

I hope they don't go with Wahlberg though. I like him well enough, but he's already in one robot action franchise. He doesn't need to be in another one.

 

[The Endless]

They have to keep the sound effect.

 

[Obsidian Idea]

They have to keep the sound effect.

Yep! Pretty much. I don't think the bionic sound was present in early eps of Six Million Dollar man though...

 

[The Shrike]

They might unless they make it a 70s period piece, which would be cool also.

I don't know how cool the 70's special effects would be though.

 

[tzarinna]

I had a huge crush on Lee Majors as a little girl, so I'm not sure I can accept anyone trying to fill those shoes. Lord, especially not Wahlberg.

 

[Rowsdower!]

If they do cast Mark Wahlberg, they should also cast Donnie Wahlberg as the Six-Hundred Dollar Man.

They were both terrible.
