Overview
- Max Greenfield told Today that he has seen scripts for a New Girl reunion and called them "amazing," a remark that renewed public attention to the project on Monday.
- Creator Liz Meriwether replied on Instagram that she has written scripts but that they have been heavily revised after receiving feedback from the cast.
- Jake Johnson said the principal cast remain in contact through a group text and that he expects the group could reunite at some point, while Lamorne Morris and Johnson traded jokey blame about delays in public remarks.
- No studio, network, or streamer has issued a formal greenlight and there is no public confirmation of distribution deals or completed cast contracts, leaving the project in active development rather than production.
- The original series ran from 2011 to 2018 and strong streaming demand for the show is the likely commercial reason behind the reunion talks, with the next concrete steps being an official greenlight and public confirmation of where the reunion would air.
