T.J. Hooker is trading the small screen for the silver screen. Deadline reported on Tuesday, August 5, that Netflix secured the rights for a film version of the beloved cop series. Instead of sticking to its drama roots, the T.J. Hooker reboot will be an action comedy movie. Rick Husky, who created T.J. Hooker, will executive produce the film. Jarrad Paul and Andy Mogel will write the script. The duo are currently showrunners on the Netflix series Free Bert starring Bert Kreischer, which will premiere later this year.
