CBS has announced their fall premiere dates with MacGyver set for Friday, September 23rd. Airing at 8 pm the show will lead in producer, Peter Lenkov’s other reboot, Hawaii Five-0, which will air straight after MacGyver in it’s usual Friday night slot.
Work recently started on refilming the pilot episode with Furious 7’s James Wan directing the new cast and crew after the original trailer received scathing criticism from fans. This prompted CBS to ditch the pilot and bring in Peter Lenkov to get the project back on track. Lenkov was the main force behind the successful reboot of Hawaii Five-0 and is excited about being able to bring a show he was a fan of as a kid back to TV for a new generation.
The announcement was released on social media with a short video giving us our first look at Lucas Till in his new look MacGyver persona since the original trailer last month.
