It's funny. I was never a big fan of the show. I've seen a few episodes here and there but over the past few years, I've wanted to read Cyborg. So I finally read it and I couldn't picture someone else as Steve Austin. No matter how hard I tried, Lee Majors image and voice always popped into my head ha ha!
I like Wahlberg but he doesn't seem right for the role. They should get someone taller at least. I guess it doesn't really matter as long as the script is good.
DISPLAY thy breasts, my Julia! -

Don't know about any of the other posters on this thread, but I have "0" interest in seeing anyone other than Lee Majors portray The Six Million Dollar Man. It's nothing personal against Mark Wahlberg or any of the others who may have been considered but there is only ONE STEVE AUSTIN as far as I'm concerned.

There is only one Col. Steve Austin and his name is Lee Majors. Mark Wahlberg does not have the charisma, humor and everything else that makes Lee special. Of course I am not interested in watching this movie in fact I am watching the real Steve Austin on tv right now and enjoying every minute of it. Lee Majors created this character and Mark Wahlberg isn't even close

Agreed friend !!!! There is only ONE STEVE AUSTIN (LEE MAJORS). There are just certain CLASSIC characters that do not need to be duplicated (i.e. Carrol O'Connor (as Archie Bunker), Peter Falk (as Columbo), Lucille Ball (as Lucy Ricardo), James Arness (as Matt Dillon) .. just to name a few.
In fact, I hope the Six Million Dollar Man bombs as this will keep them from making any additional sequels. Again, nothing personal against Mark Wahlberg.
Hey, if the studios are running out of original ideas (let alone original characters) then let them fire their current staff of writers and hire new ones. Most of the movies based on t.v. shows have failed anyway (i.e. Lost in Space, Bewitched, The Green Hornet, Dragnet .). -

We are on the same wave lenght here also on the remake of The Fall Guy please leave it alone and now talk of another remake attempt for The Big Valley and in this case no one can replace any of those guys

I'm watching the very first episode whenhe becomes the 6 miollion dollar man and there is no way that Wahlberg will even come close to what Lee did, Mark Wahlberg just does not have the acting chops to pull this off character. Please replace him.

I so agree with you. Mrk does not have the looks. the charm. the charisma and the physicality to be or do what Lee Majors did with role. They could have done a remake without making him Steve Austin but another bionic man.

Two guys remind me of Lee Majors and could play the Six Million Dollar Man. Steve Burton from GH (not sure if he's still on the show. He played Jason Quartermaine) and Jensen Ackels (Dean Winchester Supernatural). They have the looks and the personality. Why didn't someone ask me when they were casting the role?

It depends on what their take on this movie really is.
If they are adapting the 6 Million $ Man tv-series then no it won't work. Mark Wahlberg can't do what Lee Majors did with Steve Austin.
On the other hand if this is an adaptation of the original Cyborg novels, Mark Wahlberg is perfect for Steve Austin! -

Stop remaking the Classics, just stop it! We all know it will be an epic fail, just like all the other remakes. Remember the "bionic women" remake? Epic Failage. What's the matter with these people, have they no shame? What's next, reboot MASH? yeah, good luck with that.
