Quantum Leap movie may be moving forward
Bakula told the gathered audience that “Quantum Leap†creator Donald P. Bellisario is currently writing a script for a big-screen version of the series and has a “big time†Hollywood producer interested in developing it. Unfortunately, Bakula says he’s now too old to step back into the role of Sam Beckett, but assured fans he’d play a role in it:
The good news is that Don [Quantum Leap creator Donald P. Bellisario] is working on the film script and has a big time Hollywood producer who wants to do it … It’s about time. But what I always thought would happen, happened … [that he's now too old for the role]. But Dean [Stockwell, who played Al] and I will have a part in it somehow.
Don did say that as he was writing, he told me he was having trouble, ‘getting you and Dean out of my head.’ But I know he will do it."A society grows great when old men plant trees, the shade of which they know they will never sit in. Good people do things for other people. That's it, the end." -- Penelope Wilton in Ricky Gervais's After Life

Sam never returning home pretty much suggest that he leaped until he died, so I think a movie taking place showing him old, tired and having Al there showing how much of a friendship these two guys have is a powerful statement towards the show's development of these characters.
A QL movie wouldn't be QL without the Sam/Al story being finished, with Sam getting back home and someone else taking over.

(apparently I feel quite strongly about this )Originally posted by SaberBlade View PostYou should feel strongly about it. Bakula being "too old" for the role is actually great, because they get to show how much has went on for Sam and Al during the 20 years the show has been off the air.

It would interesting to see that Sam has already made it home and him and Al take turns as the hologram so that Beckett could take over for Gooshie. The person doing the leaping now could be a niece, nephew or someone related to Beckett. During the current leap it could be Al’s turn as the hologram then he gets sick and Beckett has to take over. Maybe the rest of the QL project team could be in danger of getting sick after Al gets sick and the leap is the whole key to fixing the current problem.
Just my thoughts on what I think the movie could be about.
