LOS ANGELES, July 6 (UPI) -- A movie based on the 1980s U.S. television series "T.J. Hooker" is in the works, producer Ryan Heppe said.

The action comedy will focus on the relationship between the title character and his father, but the film hasn't been cast yet, Variety.com reported.

The TV show starred William Shatner, Adrian Zmed, Heather Locklear, Richard Herd and James Darren.

"The series was the poster child for cop TV shows in the 1980s with great stunts, so we think there's a fun movie to be made from it," Heppe told Variety.
