Coming Soon says:
Warner Bros. Pictures and Team Downey are relaunching the "Perry Mason" franchise as a feature film, with Robert Downey Jr. eyeing the title role, reports Variety.
The trade says that, like the original Erle Stanley Gardner books, the Perry Mason movie will be set in the 1930s and feature characters such as Mason's secretary, Della Street, private investigator Paul Drake, and Mason's longtime courtroom nemesis, Hamilton Burger.
Team Downey's Robert Downey Jr. and Susan Downey will produce with Robert Cort, while David Gambino, Eric Hetzel and Joe Horacek will executive produce with Susan Feiles and Chris Darling.
The producers are currently looking for a writer, whose script will be based on an original story by Robert Downey Jr. and Gambino.

Now this idea I like. I loved the Perry Mason shows. I still watch the black and white reruns sometimes when nothing else is on....they're very entertaining.
Robert Downey Jr. would be perfect for this too. I can see him doing that part very well.
