TV veteran Robert Wagner will replace the late John Forsythe as the voice of Charlie in a planned Charlie's Angels small screen remake. 

Ironically, the Hart To Hart star owns 50 percent of the original Angels series. 

Drew Barrymore, who took the franchise to the big screen, will produce the new series. Casting is currently underway, but U.S. soap star Annie Ilonzeh is reportedly leading the race to land an angelic role. 

The actress, who plays Maya Ward in General Hospital, is billed to play a martial arts expert.
