Kanaly Glad Dallas Bosses Dropped Movie Plan

Dallas star Steve Kanaly is delighted producers axed plans for a big screen remake of the hit TV soap with Brad Pitt and John Travolta in the leading roles.

Studio bosses decided to relaunch the sex-and-scandal show as a new TV series after plans to make an all-star movie version fell through.

They also opted to bring back original cast members Larry Hagman, Patrick Duffy, Charlene Tilton and Linda Gray to keep the saga authentic - andKanaly, who also returns, is convinced the producers made the correct choice.

He tells UltimateDallas.com, "After all the talk about John Travolta and Brad Pitt taking the roles in the Dallas film, I am so happy that it ishappening this way instead. "People have been talking about that for years.

But fans have always said that it would not be the same without the original cast members in it".
