  "account": "Destin Daniel Cretton, the director behind Spider-Man: Brand New Day, is rumored to be set to helm a Hawaii Five-O movie, according to Deadline. If Cretton has his way, this surfboard-catchin' project could ride a gnarly wave to the big screen. Born in Haʻikū, Maui, Hawaii, Cretton has his sights set on his next adventure. Paramount Pictures has the reins on the feature film, with Bad Boys For Life writer Chris Bremner and Jackie's Noah Oppenheim crafting the script. The project, assembled by talent management/production house Entertainment 36 with the estate of Five-O creator Leonard Freeman, is currently in development. No release dates or cast members have been announced yet. However, the timing could not be more perfect, as CBS, the network that aired the 1968 series and its 2010 Scott Caan remake, is owned by Paramount Skydance. Until further updates come in, fans can start tossing around their fan-castings for Hawaiian lawmen Steve McGarrett and Danny \"Danno\" Williams.",
