Disney+ and Hulu Order Glee Reboot From Ryan Murphy

Co-creators have written a new script; outreach to roughly ten original cast members has begun; casting remains unconfirmed, with no production schedule or release date set.

Overview

  • Disney+ and Hulu officially greenlit the Glee reboot Wednesday and assigned 20th Television to produce the series for both platforms.
  • Creators Ryan Murphy, Brad Falchuk and Ian Brennan have written an initial script and say they have reached out to about ten members of the original cast.
  • No casting confirmations, production timeline or premiere date have been announced, though some cast social posts and reporting have prompted unverified return speculation.
  • Several outlets note the project must reckon with the deaths of Cory Monteith, Naya Rivera and Mark Salling plus earlier on-set controversies, factors that will shape how the revival handles legacy characters and tone.
  • Glee’s music remains commercially strong—reportedly about 4.1 million monthly listeners on Spotify—which coverage says helps explain platform interest and why music licensing and cast agreements will be central production issues.
