It looks like a star of Lost – which is ending the series this May – gets to relax in Hawaii for the foreseeable future.
Daniel Dae Kim has landed the lead role as Detective Chin Ho Kelly on the CBS Studios/network remake of Hawaii Five-O.
In the original, Detective Kelly was played by Kam Fong.
The pilot is being written by the power-combo Alex Kurtzman & Roberto Orci – the two writers responsible for the VERY profitable Transformers (1 & 2)& new Star Trek movie, along with working on Fringe & Lost. It will also be worked on by Peter Lenkov, executive producer/co-showrunner of CSI: NY.
The other lead, Detective Steve McGarrett hasn’t been cast yet.
