‘Will & Grace’ May Return with a New Season on Netflix – REPORT
Talks are reportedly underway to explore whether iconic gay sitcom Will & Grace could return for a limited series run.
Rumors of a revival first circulated when the original four cast members reunited for an election special to encourage voter turnout. That mini-sode/PSA, released on the date of the first presidential debate, has been viewed more than 6 million times on YouTube.
The show’s stars are reportedly open to the idea of a reunion, but negotiations are still nascent.
Netflix is seen as being a likely partner for the former NBC smash.
Deadline’s Nellie Andreeva reports:
Sources caution that there are no deals in place, the sides are currently far apart and there are a lot of hurdles that make mounting a Will & Grace return a daunting task, but at least there is a will to pursue it. Producing studio Universal TV needs to secure stars Eric McCormack, Debra Messing, Megan Mullally and Sean Hayes as well as creators Max Mutchnick and David Kohan. I hear the idea is to do a one-off 10-episode installment. NBC and Uni TV had no comment.
While NBC, the series’ original network, is a possibility, I hear a streaming player, like Netflix, is considered more likely. While I’d heard Netflix’s name mentioned as a potential partner, I hear there haven’t been formal conversations with the Internet network, which has successfully rebooted several beloved series including Arrested Development, Full House and Gilmore Girls, returning with four movies.
