Justin Bruening Is The New 'Knight Rider'

Justin Bruening plays Mike Traceur in the contemporary version of Knight Rider, which makes it series premiere tonight at 8pm on NBC.
Mike is the son of the 1980s original Knight Rider characters Michael Knight (David Hasselhoff) and Jennifer Traceur. Mike is the driver of KITT, a car equiped with artificial intelligence and "is capable of hacking almost any system. Its weapons systems match that of a jet fighter, and its body is capable of actually transforming into other vehicles and using sophisticated holographic imagery to elude villains," according to NBC.
Bruening is a Nebraska native who got his major break in acting as Jamie Martin on the soap opera All My Children.
