The Six Million Dollar Man

The fondly-remembered 70s TV series The Six Million Dollar Man is in line to be produced as a big-screen vehicle for Jim Carrey. Dimension Films -who own the rights to the sci-fi novel Cyborg that went on to inspire the Lee Major-starring TV show - have recruited Todd Phillips, director of Old School, to script and helm an update for the comic, who approached the company with the idea himself. "The teaming of Jim and Todd is perfect creative combination to launch the franchise," said Dimension's co-chairman Bob Weinstein. "Todd is a director with proven instincts, and Jim is a superstar."
