John Stamos' life is headed to the small screen!
The 54-year-old actor shared on Instagram on Tuesday that he is developing a show with Amazon based on his early life and career.
"Inspired 80s soap drama being developed by Amazon! So excited to bring you a story I've been trying to tell for over a decade. The story of an 18-year-old Orange County kid, thrust into the limelight of Los Angeles in the early-80s, as I was anointed the Next Big Thing on America's most popular soap," Stamos captioned a pic of himself from his early soap days.
"As a newly minted teen idol, I had to navigate the alluring but unscrupulous terrain of my new career while struggling to remain a down-to-earth kid who still lives at home and works at his Republican dad's Greek diner. Hold on, this one is going to get bumpy. Thank you #Amazon," he added.

Thanks in part to generous support from its local government, Australia has emerged as a web series hotbed. One of the funniest shows to emerge from Down Under in 2017 has been Fighting Isis, in which a group of stereotypical, loud-mouthed Australians hatch a plan to take down the world's most vile terrorist organization.
Fighting Isis, created by Seb Peart, Mark Nicholson, and Peter Corrigan, is the story of four friends -- or "mates," as the locals would say -- who are convinced by their ringleader Gav to travel to Afghanistan (where all the terrorists are from, of course) in order to find and defeat Isis.

Edgar Wright was, by his own account, "21 years old, living in North London, broke and on the dole – that's British for 'welfare'" in 1995 when he was struck by what he can only compare to a near-religious vision. The filmmaker was in the process of editing his first movie, a low-budget Spaghetti western homage, but the future director of Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz had nothing lined up and no sense of what he really wanted to do with his life. And then he put on "Bellbottoms," the first...
