In 1993, John Davis obtained the rights for a film adaptation based on the original series. However, the film fell into development limbo due to multiple script rewrites.

Grossing just $109 million worldwide on a $75–84 million budget, the film was a box office bomb, losing Warner Bros. an estimated $80 million.
