Heart of Gold
When Magnum, P.I., was airing in the 8th and final season, the Universal Studios awarded a $350,000 bonus to Tom Selleck for extravagant gifts, such as Rolex watches and Porsche. However, the most important thing is that he gave $1000 bonuses to the entire cast and crew of Magnum, P.I. Told you that he has a core of gold.
Good Reason
In a 1980 interview, someone asked Selleck about refusing a cameo role in the Magnum P.I adaptation, to which he replied bluntly. “I tell you how much I ‘m concerned because I like ‘Magnum’ and we have loyal fans. They’re taking these television shows, and buying them and spending $100 million in special effects, then mocking them and trivializing them. Then they try to get a performer who was used to do some ridiculous movie to prove that it’s all right to the crowd. And I won’t do it.”
