Dimension Films will turn late 70's ABC sitcom classic "Welcome Back, Kotter" into a feature film, with Ice Cube producing and playing the title character reports Variety.
Cube will play a teacher who returns to his tough, inner-city alma mater, where he meets a new generation of underprivileged troublemakers who are as unmotivated as he used to be.
Tom Brady ("The Hot Chick") is finalizing a deal to write the script and direct, with shooting to begin in the fall. The sitcom famously launched the career of John Travolta.
