The New Maverick

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The New Maverick is a 1978 made-for-TV movie based on the 1957 television series Maverick, with James Garner as Bret Maverick, Charles Frank as newcomer cousin Ben Maverick, Jack Kelly as Bart Maverick, and Susan Sullivan as "Poker Alice" Ivers. The TV-movie was a pilot for the series Young Maverick, which featured Frank and only lasted a few episodes. Directed by Hy Averback and written by Juanita Bartlett, the movie was filmed while Garner's series The Rockford Files was on hiatus. Garner did two more years as Rockford, then moved on to a single season in Bret Maverick, another attempt at a revival inspired by this TV-movie.

On April 21, 2006, a ten foot statue of James Garner as Bret Maverick was unveiled in his home town of Norman, Oklahoma, with Garner in attendance.
