'Glee' reboot in works at Disney+ and Hulu, but not clear who of original cast will return
Over a decade after the hit musical series ended, Disney+ and Hulu have ordered a 'Glee' reboot; co-creator Ryan Murphy has spoken with original cast members, but the new cast's identities, plot details and premiere date remain under wraps
After 17 years, the beloved "Glee" reboot is set to commence on Disney+ and Hulu. No specifics on the script, production or returning cast members have been disclosed. The news surfaced following 20th Television co-creator Ryan Murphy's revelation that he had penned a script for the revival. Murphy disclosed to Entertainment Tonight in late September that he had spoken to around 10 of the original cast members, all of whom were enthusiastic about the proposition.
It remains uncertain if the trio of Murphy, Ian Brennan, and Brad Falchuk will work as showrunners, or if they might bring in a new one, as seen in the case of the "Love Story" series. "Glee," which premiered in 2009, was a cultural touchstone with its daring dialogue, storylines, and popular covers sung by the glee club from William McKinley High School. The reboot aims to push boundaries further by streaming exclusively.
