Exclusive First Look: Hawaii Five-0 Gets a Blast from the Past!
Hawaii Five-0, as previously announced, will tap into the past — namely, that of the CBS drama’s original incarnation — when Ed Asner reprises a role he first played more than 30 years ago. And TVLine has a first look at the seven-time Emmy winner’s encore.
In the episode airing March 19, Asner will again portray August March, who in the 1975 episode “Wooden Model of a Rat” was an up-and-coming world-class smuggler. When today’s Five-0 team needs advice on a case involving smuggled gems, they turn to March, who’s now living free after serving 30 years in the joint.
As an added call-back, the new episode will weave in original footage from Asner’s original guest-starring appearance. Check out the first photo from Asner’s encore, then read on for more:
Asked for his reaction upon getting the call to revisit a character he thought he had left behind long ago, Asner told TVLine, “It was a delight that I was alive to inspire the idea, firstly. And secondly, I was glad to have the opportunity to work on a top show like Hawaii Five-0 with [executive producer] Peter Lenkov, who I admire enormously.”
Plus, of course, there’s the perk of a trip to the Aloha State. “Yeah,” Asner acknowledged, “that’s always nice!”
A refresher on what the original episode was all about from the promo that is featured on the DVD (the episode is actually 8.15 not 8.14):
This episode also marks the return of Steve's sister Mary Ann played by Taryn Manning. Spoiler: Recent early episode sypnosis has said that Mary Ann gets into serious trouble when she arrives back in Hawaii which may could be a link to August's return to Hawaii Five-0.
