Diesel Producing Miami Vice Reboot?

It looks like they’re rebooting Miami Vice again.

According to Variety, the project hails from the team behind the The Fast and the Furious franchise with Vin Diesel’s production company, One Race Television, teaming up with Chris Morgan Productions, which is headed by Chris Morgan. Morgan has written six of the Fast & Furious films to date. However, no executive producers have been locked in yet, as deals are still being hammered out.

One Race TV is under a deal at Universal Television, which is the studio behind the new project.

Peter Macmanus will write the script, based on the original series. While executive producers haven’t been set, it’s more than likely Macmanus, Morgan, and Diesel will all serve as EPs, along with more staffers from One Race TV, and Chris Morgan Prods, including Ainsley Davies. Shana Waterman, head of TV for One Race, shepherded the project.

Is it wrong to hope that Vin Diesel simply isn’t in the movie, in any capacity?
