The lead role in Magnum, P.I. became Selleck's big break. The producers didn't want Tom for other projects, so Tom had no choice but to pass on playing Indiana Jones in Raiders of the Lost Ark, and the role went to actor Harrison Ford instead. However, the pilot's shooting for Magnum was delayed for six months by a writers' strike. The delay should have enabled him to complete Raiders of the Lost Ark.
