It’s been on the table for about 20 years now, and supposedly things were getting underway about four years ago (20th Century Fox, director of Speed/Twister, etc.). I can’t find any info post-2002, though, and most of the solid stuff dates back to 2000 or 2001, so it might have fallen by the wayside.

(...) Speaking of sci-fi novels begging for a film adaptation, I've always thought the Stainless Steel Rat series by Harry Harrison would make rip-roaring films. I vote for Jude Law to play Slippery Jim di Griz Allister (21 years ago, 6-Mar-04, to lugnet.off-topic.geek, FTX)
