Bangkok Dangerous scribe Jason Richman has been tapped to pen the big screen update of the 1980s action-adventure show.
The original MacGyver starred Richard Dean Anderson as a resourceful secret agent who could escape any dangerous situation with his own unique science-based creativity.
Raffaella De Laurentiis, Martha De Laurentiis and series creator Lee Zlotoff are producing the film.
MacGyver is spoofed in the Saturday Night Live sketch-turned-feature film MacGruber, opening today in US cinemas.
