It is reported that Dennis Hopper is set to star in a 13-part TV adaptation of the Oscar winning movie `Crash`.

It is said that the TV series will appear on US cable channel, Starz. The series will feature many different characters from those in the 2005 film.

The TV series is due out in October and reports suggest that Dennis Hopper will play rebel music producer.

I`m sure the series will be a great TV show but the main reason why I am excited is to have Dennis Hopper on TV week in and week out. Hopper is a living marvel and casting him as a maverick music producer in a TV show based on a film that beat the likes of Brokeback Mountain as beast picture in 2006, has got to be a good thing.

Dennis Hopper is 72 years young and still going strong. I for one am looking forward to when this show hits our screens later this year.
