Disney Officially Announces Glee Reboot Is Happening

Disney and Hulu have officially ordered a reboot of *Glee*, reviving the musical comedy-drama more than a decade after the original series ended. Ryan Murphy, who had recently spoken about wanting to revisit the show, is involved, though the announcement gave few details about its story or cast.

Murphy said he had completed a script and had spoken with about 10 original cast members, who were enthusiastic but had questions. The reboot is from 20th Television, with co-creators Brad Falchuk and Ian Brennan also involved in the script. The original ran for six seasons from 2009 to 2015; it remains unclear whether the new series will continue its story or feature returning cast members.
