Oscar-winning filmmaker James Cameron is converting one of his successful movies into a television program, according to Deadline.com.

The movie is the Jamie Lee Curtis-Arnold Schwarzenegger action comedy "True Lies." Cameron’s Lightstorm Entertainment and 20th Century Fox TV are prepping the project to pitch to the networks, with Rene Echevarria writing and executive producing with Cameron, Jon Landau and Lightstorm’s Rae Sanchini.

The original film was released in 1994.

Love True Lies, but this story has been done already a bunch of times since the movie was released.
Isn't NBC doing a show about a husband and wife spy team this season?

I agree with TJL. Drop the Mrs. and Mr. Smith crap. A new show will be on like this this season called Undercovers.
