Mel B is reportedly set to star in the new 'Magnum' film.
The Spice Girl - who is keen to make it as an actress - is believed to have won a part in the big screen version of the hit 80s show, which was about a private investigator living in Hawaii.
A source said: "Mel will play a tough-talking detective. Her no-nonsense attitude will make her a great addition to the cast."
The TV show, on which the movie is based, 'Magnum, P.I.' saw Tom Selleck play Thomas Magnum, an investigator who solved crimes while driving around in his Ferrari 308 GTS.
Although the cast is yet to be officially announced, it was recently reported that Matthew McConaughey would play Magnum.
Actors Steve Zahn, Tyrese Gibson and William H. Macy are rumoured to be playing the characters Rick, T.C, and Higgins respectively.
