Former Full House star John Stamos is putting together an all-star cast to take the hit U.S. family sitcom to the big screen in a new feature film.
Stamos rose to fame as ‘Uncle’ Jesse Katsopolis in the series, which ran from 1987 to 1995 and starred twin media moguls Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen and actors Bob Saget, Dave Coulier, Jodie Sweetin, and Candace Cameron Bure.
He tells the New York Daily News, “I’m working on a movie idea, but it wouldn’t be us playing us. I’m not 100 per cent sure, but it would probably take place in the first few years. I see Steve Carell as (Bob Saget’s character) Danny Tanner and Tracy Morgan as (Dave Coulier’s character) Joey Gladstone because he’s funny.”
But the actor has dashed hopes of fans desperate to see the original cast reunited on the small screen. He adds, “I don’t see it happening anytime soon. We’re all very close. I saw Ashley a couple weeks ago. Bob and Dave I see a lot.”

John Stamos has enjoyed a successful career for more than 25 years, but there’s still one role he has yet to tackle: Dad. “The cards haven’t fallen that way for me. I didn’t want to have a child with the wrong person,” says John, who divorced Rebecca Romijn in 2005. “I’d like my kid to grow up the way I did, having a mother and a father — coming home from work and eating dinner together.” The timing might finally be right now that the ER hunk has found love again with model Leah Marsh. “I’ve been talking about it for a while,” the star of Lifetime’s The Two Mr. Kissels — a gritty new movie airing on November 15 at 9 p.m. ET — tells In Touch. “I’m ready to have kids.”
When do you want to become a father?
Soon, I think. I’m 45.
Do you want a lot of kids?
I don’t know, but it seems like once you have one, you want more.
Would you adopt?
Of course. If it doesn’t work out the other way, I would go to Project Cuddle, a charity I’m involved with that helps young women who are considering abandoning their babies.
What kind of father will you be?
A good dad. I have many connections at Disneyland [laughs]. But if I could be half the dad my late father was, that would be perfect.

Grey’s Anatomy has McDreamy and McSteamy, but only ER has McSexy!
That’s the Mc-nickname the cast and crew has given John Stamos on the long-running NBC medical drama.
“I have been called Dr. McSexy,” the actor tells Parade.com. “It’s a tough job but somebody has to do it. And who wouldn’t want to get passionate with Linda Cardellini?”
And while shooting love scenes may be awkward, getting it on with various leading ladies on the show is much easier than memorizing and spouting off medical jargon.
“[On] Full House…I had lines like, ‘Michelle, say poo poo.’ So when I first came on ER, I was like, ‘What if my character is a great doctor but can’t really pronounce the medical terms?’” John says. “And they looked at me like, ‘No, Stamos, talking the talk is part of the gig.’
Complicating matters is all the medical equipment that must be used during scenes, but the 44-year-old says “it’s gotten a little easier, but I really have to work on it because everything happens so fast.”
He’ll only have to work on it for one more year as the show has gotten a DNR after the 2008-09 season. So what’s next for John?
Producing films.
“It’s about Project Cuddle, which I discovered through my mother,” he says. “This woman has been saving babies that have been abandoned and then finding them adoptive parents. Now she’s counseling girls before they have an urge to abandon their kids and helping them with prenatal care. I think she’s saved about 675 babies. It’s going to be a beautiful movie.”

John Stamos is ready to hang up his scrubs for good.
The actor, who plays Dr. Tony Gates on ER, says that he won’t be spinning off his character into a new series when the medical drama ends next year.
“[I’ve] never offered but there’s been talk about that,” he tells Extra. “I’m really having a great time doing the show and we’re still cranking out good quality. So, I think when they’re done, I’m ready to go off into the sunset.”
He’s not the only one. His co-star, Maura Tierney, recently said she’s ready to be done with her character, Dr. Abby Lockhart, as well. But before they can bid adieu next season – the long-running series’ 15th – there are still storylines to be wrapped up for this season – some of which are proving to be hazardous for John. While shooting a love scene with Linda Cardellini, the 44-year-old failed to make a good impression.
“I bashed her in the nose and I couldn’t get her bra off,” he says. “And she was like, ‘I thought you’d be better at this.’”

E.R. star John Stamos has turned down the chance to launch his own spin-off medical drama from the hit TV show. TV bosses wanted to create a new series centered around his character, Dr. Tony Gates. But sources claim Stamos wants to keep himself free for movie offers and has rejected the idea.
An insider tells the New York Post, “He’s not interested in being locked into a contract right now. He’s got other options open.”
