ABC have confirmed plans to make a TV spin off of classic movie Uncle Buck.

The film was released back in 1989 and starred John Candy, Jean Louisa Kelly, Gaby Hoffmann, and Macaulay Culkin. During a family crisis, Uncle Buck was called to take charge of his nephew and nieces. He soon charms his younger relatives Miles and Maizy with his hefty cooking and his new way of doing the laundry.

Will Packer Productions is teaming with Steven Cragg and Brian Bradley to bring an adaptation of the movie to the small screen. Uncle Buck is the latest in a long list of old films that are being remade for TV, joining the likes of Big and Problem Child.
