London: Actor Robson Green thinks a US remake of his TV series "Wire in the Blood" could be "brilliant".
The crime thriller was being eyed for adaptation by ABC - though the network later passed on the project.
Green, though, said that the show - in which he played psychologist Dr Tony Hill - still has the potential to be a US smash-hit, reported Digital Spy.
"The script was written - there was some amazing talk on who could play Tony Hill," the actor said. "Everyone from Guy Pearce to Billy Bob Thornton.
"They'd Americanize it and they'd do a brilliant job. American TV - the high-end stuff - is exceptional. They'd have made a great job of it, but it wasn't picked up - never mind."
Green also ruled out ever reprising the role of Tony if a US remake did make it to the screen. "No, I've done that," he said. "I took that part as far as it could go."
