Bradley Whitford on Bringing Back ‘The West Wing’ as a ‘Limited Series’
Bradley Whitford says it may be time to revive *The West Wing* as a limited series, and plans to encourage creator Aaron Sorkin to write it. The prospect matters to fans because Sorkin has previously said that ideas for new episodes came to him during a 2024 White House reunion.
Dulé Hill said the cast would return if Sorkin wrote new episodes, though he questioned how the show could dramatise today’s turbulent world. He hoped a revival might promote humanity and understanding. The NBC series ran for seven seasons, from 1999 to 2006, and won 27 Emmy Awards from 95 nominations.
