Tom Selleck's Raiders of the Lost Ark screen test, opposite Sean Young
Tom Selleck, best known as TV's Thomas Magnum, turns 60 today. Selleck playing Magnum reminds me of Harrison Ford playing Han Solo, both looking too boyish yet to be tough guys. You may know that George Lucas originally wanted Selleck to play Indiana Jones, but he was already committed to Magnum.
Magnum later paid homage to Indy with the episode "Legend of the Lost Art".
I'm looking forward to seeing Selleck as Chief Jesse Stone in the CBS movie STONE COLD to air Sunday, Feb. 20. Recently, I've enjoyed his work in the TNT Westerns CROSSFIRE TRAIL and MONTE WALSH; STONE COLD is from the same production company.
