Cult Classic "MacGyver" Going To The Big Screen

"MacGyver" will be pushing his way to the big screen with his trusty Swiss Army knife. New Line Cinema is developing to '80s action adventure series into a feature film.

Hollywood Reporter reports that Raffaella De Laurentiis is producing the big screen adaptation through her Raffaella Productions along with Martha De Laurentiis and the series' creator Lee Zlotoff.

The ABC series originally ran from 1985 to 1992. Richard Dean Anderson starred as the titular resourceful secret agent whose main asset is his practical application of scientific knowledge using common household items. Two more made-for-TV movies were produced in 1994.

No writer is still attached to the project.
