The upcoming “Knight Rider” film by the creators of “Cobra Kai” might not just be a remake, but potentially the foundation for a common universe encompassing “Airwolf” and “The Six Million Dollar Man.
Tachyon Pulse Claims Crossover Plans
On the Tachyon Pulse podcast, they suggest that Universal has a proposed scheme linking numerous iconic ’80s intellectual properties.
Based on what’s being circulated, it seems that the studio is planning to initiate a Knight Rider film first, followed by potential projects involving Airwolf and The Six Million Dollar Man.
And we agree: they MUST keep the Airwolf theme music.
The idea seems to have originated during a time when writers and directors were on strike at Universal, prompting executives to consider reviving old franchise series. Now that Cobra Kai has concluded, it’s reported that the creative minds behind it-Jon Hurwitz, Hayden Schlossberg, and Josh Heald-are actively moving forward with this concept.
Streaming Release and Timeline
Instead of a traditional theatrical run, the project may go directly to streaming.
In the United States, the “Knight Rider” movie will premiere on Peacock for the first time. Meanwhile, global distribution rights are managed by Netflix. However, viewers should anticipate its release no sooner than early 2027.
If the movie is successful, whispers indicate there could be a 10-episode series in its wake, potentially expanding into revivals of Airwolf and The Six Million Dollar Man. These spin-offs might eventually culminate in a joint film project.
Shared Technology and AI Storyline
The report adds that the crossover will be tied together by AI technology.
In the television show The Six Million Dollar Man, KITT, Airwolf, and the bionic enhancements are all anticipated to feature comparable AI systems. This could pave the way for a common antagonist deeply tied to artificial intelligence.
According to the YouTuber’s observation, as artificial intelligence becomes more prominent, the plot might be developed with a realistic yet futuristic approach, creating a smoother link between the story elements.
Cars Still in Discussion
In their discussion, the Tachyon Pulse podcast delved into the current controversy regarding which vehicle might be the next incarnation of Knight Rider’s iconic car, KITT.
Both the Tesla Roadster and Dodge Charger Electric Vehicles are under consideration for purchase. The ultimate decision will be influenced by any potential sponsorship agreements.
Building on Nostalgia
Universal has been making efforts for quite some time to revive its popular action brands from the ’80s, and one potential approach to achieve this might be by merging shows like Knight Rider, Airwolf, and The Six Million Dollar Man into a single shared universe. This could potentially make these shows more relatable and engaging for contemporary audiences.
It’s likely that the makers of Cobra Kai will be able to achieve another triumph as they successfully rejuvenated The Karate Kid, let’s hope for a repeat performance!
