David Hasselhoff is certainly keeping busy lately, but there is always something about your first project that tends to stick with you throughout your career, and for Hasselhoff that happens to be Knight Rider.
Currently doing press for his AXS TV network series Hoff the Record, Hasselhoff mentioned a few of his other upcoming roles, including the new Baywatch with Dwayne Johnson and Sharknado 4. Eventually, it came back around to Knight Rider and he had some suggestions for how the series could be relaunched.
"I see it as more of a continuation of the TV series, and they can add new characters or whatever, but they should basically keep the same feeling of the show. There are so many people out there that will absolutely freak out and love it," he explained. "It would be Michael Knight kind of coming out of retirement with his son and having adventures around the world, and doing a 'Fast and Furious' with the Knight Rider car. How cool does that sound? How cool could it be?"
Knight Rider was relaunched back in 2008 on NBC, but the series failed to take off. Most believe it had to do with less tongue in cheek handling of the license, and Hasselhoff's plan is to embrace that, which is personally the right way to go.
