A reboot of the 1992 classic film, "Boomerang," is in the works at BET.
via HuffPost:
This time around, "Boomerang" will be reimagined as a half-hour comedy from Paramount Television exploring "contemporary workplace dynamics, including the changing role of gender, office politics, relationships and the conflicts between Generation X and millennials," the outlet reported.
The series will follow a successful business executive, presumably based on Murphy's character, who "finds that his lifestyle choices have turned back on him when his new boss turns out to be a bigger deviant that he is."
No writer or producer is currently attached, and it's unclear whether any of the film's original cast, including Murphy, Halle Berry, Martin Lawrence, Robin Givens and Grace Jones, will appear.
Murphy is involved with bringing back another of his comedy favorites, the long-awaited sequel to "Coming to America." The film is currently in development with a script by "Black-ish" creator Kenya Barris, and Jonathan Levine taking over directing duties.
