Remember the classic TV series called The Six Million Dollar Man, which stars Lee Majors back in the mid-'70s? By today's standard, it's definitely considered as a terribly dated show. However, word has SUPERMAN RETURNS director Bryan Singer is on board to direct a feature-length version of the TV series! But of course, the movie version won't be titled as THE SIX MILLION DOLLAR MAN... that is definitely sounds goofy, right? Instead it will be called THE SIX BILLION DOLLAR MAN (hey, it's all about inflation).
That's not all. Singer is trying to talk Leonardo DiCaprio into playing the Steve Austin character, played by Lee Majors in the TV series.
In case you forgot, the original TV series centered on Majors' Steve Austin who was an astronaut-turned-cyborg superspy after an accident left him hopelessly damaged. He was then "rebuilt" into the titular six million dollar man, and later becomes a valuable asset to fight off against enemies.
