    AceShowbiz –
    David Hasselhoff is heading to German TV to play a fictionalized version of himself in a new series. The “Baywatch” star will appear in “Ze Network”, alongside German actor Henry Hubchen, who will also play a heightened version of himself, with the show described as an international conspiracy story.

    “Ze Network”, produced for RTL streaming service TV Now, will see David land the lead role in a German stage show, only to be plunged into the center of a conspiracy of former Cold War assassins while the fabric of reality seems to break down around him.

    David, who will also serve as an executive producer, said of the show, “Knight Rider was incredibly successful for both me and RTL. Returning now 30 years later to do a cutting-edge series and working with RTL again is a dream come true. The series is funny, deadly, creative and informative… simply exciting. Fact or fiction, you decide.”

    “Dogs of Berlin” creator Christian Alvart is set to direct “Ze Network”. Speaking of his future collaboration with David for the series, he stated, “I can’t wait to share with audiences the crazy ride Mr. Hasselhoff will be bravely taking on with ‘Ze Germans’.”

    This won’t be the first time the star has played a fictional version of himself – he did the same in “Hoff the Record”, a sitcom which ran for two seasons from 2015 on U.K. TV channel Dave.

    He also appeared in the 2017 movie “Killing Hasselhoff”, in which Ken Jeong portrayed a cash-strapped nightclub owner who hires a hitman to kill the star in a bid to win a celebrity death pool and revive his fortunes.

      David Hasselhoff on Working on New 'Knight Rider' Movie: I Have 'Emotional Hand' and 'Passion'

      Despite not knowing whether he will appear in the upcoming movie, the 68-year-old actor portraying Michael Knight on the original TV action series admits to having invested in the conception of the flick.

      AceShowbiz – David Hasselhoff had an “emotional hand” in the conception of the new “Knight Rider” movie.
      The 68-year-old actor starred as crime-fighter Michael Knight in the TV action series between 1982 and 1986.
      Speaking to Consequence of Sound, the star revealed that he is invested in the upcoming movie – despite not knowing if he will have a role in the flick.
      He said, “The details I can share are I have an emotional hand in it and I have a passion.”
      “The guy who’s writing it is a major ‘Knight Rider’ fan. He sent me a picture of him in the ‘Knight Rider’ car. His name is T.J. Fixman.”

      Hasselhoff continued, “The concept, I don’t really know. I threw my hat into the ring as ‘nostalgia meets Knight Rider of today’, which is not a new ‘Knight Rider’, but a continuation of it.”
      “They want to do a script that has my approval on it. Whether I’m in it or not, or whether I approve of it, the answer is: I don’t know.”
      The “Baywatch” star had been hoping to bring “Knight Rider” – which follows the adventures of Michael Knight and his assistant KITT, an almost indestructible talking car – to the big screen for several years and is keen that this adaptation remains faithful to the TV series.
      “I had the rights for about 10 years to ‘Knight Rider’, and I couldn’t get a bite. And these guys have it now because of the timing, because of the resurgence of nostalgia, because the guy who’s doing it gets it,” he explained.
      “It’s not about a talking car. It’s about the relationship between Michael and KITT. And it’s also about the action and ‘one man can make a difference’. And if they do that, I’ll probably support it. If they don’t do that, they’ve hassled The Hoff.”
