Banijay Deal Unlocks ‘The Inbetweeners’ Rights, Opening Path to a Potential Return

The pact gives creators Iain Morris and Damon Beesley scope to develop new stories centered on the original characters, with no project, format or cast lineup yet greenlit.

Overview

  • Banijay UK and Fudge Park confirmed an agreement that formally unlocks the rights, enabling film, TV or stage options for The Inbetweeners.
  • Iain Morris and Damon Beesley said they are “plotting more adventures” for Will, Simon, Jay and Neil, indicating plans focus on the original characters rather than a reboot.
  • Banijay UK chief executive Patrick Holland endorsed the effort, praising the creators’ vision and saying discussions about the brand’s future are underway.
  • No format, timeline or production schedule has been announced, though coverage notes a Las Vegas-set film has been floated previously as a possible concept.
  • Cast involvement has not been confirmed, with earlier enthusiasm from Joe Thomas contrasted by prior denials from Simon Bird and recent social-media teases fueling speculation.
