-
A television reboot is in development, shifting from the original film duo to a new format. Production reportedly began in 2025, with plans to debut on Crave/Bell Media platforms in 2026. The new series features Henry Czerny stepping into the role of Detective Martin Ward, replacing Colm Feore, and continues Patrick Huard’s involvement as creator and lead. This marks a notable reimagining of the franchise for a contemporary TV audience. [Sources include coverage of the 2025–2026 development and cast changes.]

The six-episode or multi-episode format centers on bilingual, cross-provincial policing adventures, retaining the buddy-cop energy while expanding to Indigenous communities and new settings. Early reporting emphasizes fresh chemistry between Huard’s character and Czerny’s Ward-like figure, with Joshua Odjick joining in a prominent role. The project has generated both excitement for a beloved IP and questions among longtime fans about recasting established leads. [Sources discuss the shift in casting and the new team dynamics.]

Reception and context: the original Bon Cop, Bad Cop (2006) remains a Canadian box-office phenomenon, and the 2017 sequel Bon Cop Bad Cop 2 is part of the franchise’s history. The TV reboot represents an attempt to translate the franchise’s bilingual, cross-cultural appeal to a modern streaming/linear TV environment. [Sources reference the film’s legacy and the move to a TV format.]
