Star!
Don’t be surprised to learn that Tom Selleck has his own Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. In 1986 he was graced with the honor and it just goes to show just how much his time on Magnum P.i. boosted his career. 6925 Hollywood Blvd is where you need to be if you want to see it.

There is no way anyone but Tom Selleck could play the lead in Magnum, P.I., however he almost didn’t get the part. The producers had someone else in mind, Kevin Dobson. Dobson was an established TV star, but he turned the role down in the end. Lucky break for Selleck!
