Paxton starred in the crooked cop role in the series similar to Washington’s Harris from the original film.
Collider reports that Warner Bros. is in the process of developing a Training Day prequel with screenwriter Nick Yarborough set to pen the script.
The original Training Day was directed by Antoine Fuqua (The Equalizer, Southpaw) from a script by David Ayer (Suicide Squad, Fury) and starred Washington, Ethan Hawke, Eva Mendes, and Scott Glenn with cameos by Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg.
A television series based on the feature film was developed at CBS and starred Bill Paxton in one of his final roles.
