Jack Neuman was approached to write a made-for-TV movie to bring back the original Peter Gunn, Craig Stevens to the role. The project ended because of Blake Edwards' film shooting schedule. Edwards once again announced a TV movie version in 1984 which was intended to star Robert Wagner as Gunn. This eventually became the 1989 TV movie starring Peter Strauss.
