Fox's 'Alcatraz' will re-create famous 'Bullitt' chase scene

3/13/2012

The 1968 cop drama "Bullitt" has become synonymous with Steve McQueen, San Francisco, and a Ford Mustang car chase. Fox's new show "Alcatraz" is looking to recapture the magic of the final two, staging an almost shot-for-shot remake of Bullitt's iconic car chase scene for the season finale on March 26. Instead of McQueen's highland green 1968 Mustang GT Fastback, the show will use modern iterations of the Mustang, as shown in this video that captures a bit of the stunt driving action.
