- The reunion appears to be moving forward.
- No release date or official cast details have been announced.
Explained simply
New Girl is an American comedy about Jess, a teacher who moves into a shared flat with three men: Nick, Schmidt and Winston. Zooey Deschanel, Jake Johnson, Max Greenfield and Lamorne Morris played the central characters, and the show ran for seven series from 2011 to 2018.
The series built a following through its flatmates’ friendships and romantic relationships. A reunion would bring the original cast back to a story that ended several years ago, while its format, timing and cast have yet to be confirmed.
