This Fall season
MacGyver isn't the only franchise getting a TV remake over on
CBS, as
Fox is taking the opportunity to reboot the cop buddy
Lethal Weapon film franchise for the small screen.
Made famous in 1987 by the winning combination of
Mel Gibson as the young and reckless
'Martin Riggs' and
Danny Glover as the experienced homicide detective,
'Roger Murtaugh', the action movie spawned three sequels through to 1998, all directed by
Richard Donner.
For the new
Fox series
Clayne Crawford and
Damon Wayans step into the iconic detectives shoes as the new cops on the beat. Will they share the same chemistry as the original and can the format work on episodic television, or is this just another police procedural added to the schedule.
This
Lethal Weapon TV remake billboard was snapped at the intersection of
Highland and
Melrose Avenues on August 22, 2016.
Let's see if this movie spin-off can better last year's
Minority Report,
Limitless and the recent
Rush Hour TV series.
UPDATED: Here's another slightly different ad creative for the new TV remake snapped along
West Hollywood's Sunset Strip on September 8, 2016.
Daily Billboard can't help but wonder though,
'Action's biggest pair' of what?
UPDATED: Due to the on set shenanigans of
Clayne Crawford, Damon Wayans gets a new cop partner in the form of
Seann William Scott for the third season of the
Lethal Weapon TV series. This season three billboard was spotted at
Fox Studios along
Pico Boulevard on September 8, 2018.
