Paramount Pictures is developing a feature film adaptation of the long‑running police procedural “Hawaii Five‑O.” The studio has tapped director Destin Daniel Cretton, whose recent work includes the summer blockbuster “Spider‑Man: Brand New Day,” to helm the project.
The screenplay is being written by Chris Bremner, the writer behind “Bad Boys for Life.” While the involvement of Cretton and Bremner has been confirmed, specific plot details for the movie have not been disclosed.
The development of the “Hawaii Five‑O” film follows the series’ continued presence in popular culture, and the studio’s announcement signals an intention to bring the iconic Hawaiian setting to a new cinematic audience. No production schedule or release date has been announced at this stage.
Cretton’s recent success with “Spider‑Man: Brand New Day,” which performed strongly at the box office, is cited as a factor in his selection for the project. The director’s experience with action‑driven storytelling is expected to shape the tone of the upcoming adaptation.
Paramount has not provided further information regarding casting, filming locations, or additional crew members, leaving the project in an early development phase pending further updates.
