Chris Bremner (Bad Boys for Life) will pen the screenplay
for the movie, which will be produced by Dan Lin, Julie Andrews, Larry Mirisch,
and Jonathan Eirich.
The new feature project would be a live-action/ CG hybrid
and would combine both traditions. The premise takes a buddy cop movie tone to
the proceedings with the Inspector and Panther teaming up for the first time
ever on the big screen.
The Pink Panther franchise began with the 1963 comedy film,
starring Peter Sellers as bumbling Inspector Clouseau.
The Pink Panther refers to the name of a valuable pink
diamond at the centre of a heist in the original film. A cartoon panther
appeared in the opening credits, and became popular in his own right, starring
in several animated projects over the decades.
Sellers later reprised the role in A Shot in the Dark
(1964), The Return of the Pink Panther (1975), The Pink Panther Strikes Again
(1976), and Revenge of the Pink Panther (1978).
The role has also been inhabited by Alan Arkin and Roger
Moore. Actor-comedian Steve Martin played the part in 2006's The Pink Panther
and 2009's The Pink Panther 2.
Murphy most recently starred in Netflix's You People,
co-starring Jonah Hill, Lauren London, and Julia Louis-Dreyfus.
