Main Article:Knight Rider 2008
On September 26, 2007, NBC announced that it is creating a two-hour backdoor pilot to air later this season.[8] In the new version, Justin Bruening will star as the estranged son of Michael Knight, Mike Tracer.[9] Deanna Russo will play Tracer's one-time girlfriend and love interest, Sarah Kamen.[9] Bruce Davison will co-star as her father, physicist Charles Kamen.[9] Wayne Kasserman co-stars as Mike's roommate and friend.[10] David Hasselhoff is also being approached to appear as Michael Knight.[9]
KITT will be portrayed as a black 550 HP Ford Shelby GT500KR Mustang.[11] This decision has been met with heavy backlash among internet bloggers and fans of the orignal show and original K.I.T.T many suggestion a modified new Camaro.
Supervising producer Dave Andron ("Raines") is writing the pilot script, Doug Liman and Dave Bartis ("The O.C.", "Heist") to executive produce.[9]
Variety reports that Transformers inspired Ben Silverman's decision to revive Knight Rider because smallscreen effects are sophisticated enough to have a weekly series with shape shifting cars (though the 1990s series Viper, heavily influenced by Knight Rider, shared the same concept)
NBC announced on December 13, 2007 that the new 2-hour pilot will air on February 17, 2008. Two new cast members were also announced; Will Arnett of Arrested Development fame will be the voice for the new K.I.T.T Mustang, and Sydney Tamiia Poitier, daughter of Sydney Poitier, will play fiesty FBI agent Carrie Ruvai.[12]
