Akiva Goldsman to bring Ghost to the small screen

JoBloJoBlo

Immediately upon seeing that there was news of a GHOST series, I thought of “Unchained Melody”. Then I wondered if the magic that is the movie could even be captured on the small screen. Basically there’s a lot running through my head right now.

So Akiva Goldsman (I AM LEGEND) and Jeff Pinkner (ALIAS, LOST) are developing a series based on 1990s GHOST which starred Patrick Swayze, Demi Moore, Whoopi Goldberg, and Tony Goldwyn for Paramount TV. The movie was about a man who after being killed contacts a psychic to team-up with his wife in an effort to avenge his murder. If you haven’t seen it, you definitely should.

Veteran showrunner Pinkner will co-write the script for the pilot episode. What details will they keep? How long do they expect this to keep running? Obviously they have to do something a little differently. We know how it all ends up panning out.

Let’s keep the time at the early 90s. I doubt that’s going to happen but maybe they’ll keep “Unchained Melody” and use it as the theme…
