Overview
- Deadline reported that Paramount is assembling a package that would attach Destin Daniel Cretton to develop and direct a big‑screen reboot of the 1968–1980 TV series Hawaii Five‑O.
- The same report says writer Chris Bremner is set to pen the script and Noah Oppenheim is lined up to produce.
- Paramount declined to comment, and industry sources described the news as an early packaging move rather than a studio greenlight with cast or a production schedule.
- Coverage highlights Cretton’s strengthened market position after the box‑office success of Spider‑Man: Brand New Day and notes he has other high‑profile projects in development.
- Past film attempts were blocked by lawsuits and rights disputes, and those legal complications are a key context for why packaging talent is being used before any formal studio commitment.
