Tom Selleck Wants Magnum Movie Role

Tom Selleck has launched a campaign to star in the movie version of his hit U.S. TV show Magnum P.I. - because studio bosses have yet to approach him to revive the role.

The 64-year-old actor starred as Thomas Magnum, a private investigator living in tropical Hawaii, in the 1980s series - one of the highest-rated shows on American television during its eight year run.

And Selleck is baffled that film chiefs have yet to tap him to revisit the role he made famous, insisting fans are pleading for his return.

He says, "They haven't called, they haven't written. I keep hearing they're developing one but I don't know whether I'm going to be in it... but they keep doing (fan) polls, and I keep winning them."
