"Knight Rider" is firing back to life.
NBC announced today that its long-awaited revival of the 1980s show about a talking car (a high-tech "My Mother, the Car," cynics might say) will air Feb. 17 as a two-hour movie.
The network unveiled the new customized KITT Ford Mustang to be featured in the series in a press event at NBC's Burbank Studios today.
The movie stars Justin Bruening ("Cold Case," "All My Children"), Deanna Russo ("NCIS," "The Young and the Restless"), Sydney Tamiia Poitier ("Veronica Mars," "Grindhouse") and Bruce Davison ("Breach," "Close to Home").
But the really big news: David Hasselhoff will return as Michael Knight in a special guest-star appearance.
Second piece of really big news: William Daniels won't provide KITT's voice this time around. That honor goes to "Arrested Development's" Will Arnett.

The car won't be a Firebird this time?
I think "XZIBIT" from TV'S "Pimnp my ride" will
guest starr as KITT'S master Mechanic!
