ABC has made an offer to Freemantle, American Idol production company, to buy the franchise and reboot it for a March 2018 premiere.
The network is also planning to bring the original host Ryan Seacrest back to the popular singing competition TV series, which has been off the air for a year, reported TMZ.
ABC's bid comes after NBC previously tried to crack a deal with the show's production company in February.
