"Quantum Leap star Scott Bakula has announced that a film version of the sci-fi television series is in development. Bakula, who played Sam Beckett in the NBC drama, told fans at this year&amp;#039;s Comic-Con that the show&amp;#039;s creator Donald P. Bellisario is working on a script for the movie. &amp;quot;The good news is that Don is working on the film script and has a big-time Hollywood producer who wants to do it,&amp;quot; said Bakula. &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s about time.&amp;quot; However, Bakula claimed that he and co-star Dean Stockwell (Al Calavicci) are now too old to reprise their original roles. He suggested that the characters will be recast for the film. &amp;quot;But Dean and I will have a part in it somehow,&amp;quot; he added. The original Quantum Leap ran from 1989 to 1993.
