The Greatest American Hero movie, with filming to start in July in Arizona. Well, I've received a tip that Ian Ziering (from 90210 and Dancing with the Stars) has apparently let slip that he recently went to a casting call to star as Ralph Hinkley, the goofy blonde teacher who is the beneficiary of the red alien-designed suit with all the wacky powers. While I suppose it's possible Ian Ziering could make the transition from a career mostly spent on the small screen, I'm thinking instead that perhaps this Greatest American Hero movie is actually a TV movie, sort of in the spirit of the recent Knight Rider TV movie. Having said that, in the past (and the project has been bubbling around for many years), it always seemed like the goal was a big screen Greatest American Hero movie, but that's also what they used to say about Knight Rider.

There is no TGAH movie filming in July, or any other month. It's a false internet rumor. I personally worked on the release of the DVD sets, and due to that have contacts in the right areas. They have assured me NO movie is in any sort of production, or pre-production at the moment.
