Glee musical TV reboot confirmed for Disney Plus and Hulu
Ryan Murphy’s hit musical series Glee is set to return in a reboot for Disney Plus and Hulu, continuing the story that launched several musical theatre careers. The announcement follows confirmation of a completed script by the original creators.
The Glee reboot has been officially greenlit for production by 20th Television, with plans to broadcast on Disney Plus and Hulu. The revival is based on a finished draft co-written by Ryan Murphy, Brad Falchuk, and Ian Brennan, the original trio behind the successful first two seasons of the show.
Glee originally aired on Fox from 2009 to 2015, spanning six seasons and focusing on a high school show choir in Ohio. The programme helped propel musical talents like Lea Michele, Jonathan Groff, Darren Criss, Alex Newell, and others onto stages worldwide and into broader entertainment careers.
Murphy has already reached out to around ten members of the original cast regarding the reboot, with those approached reportedly expressing interest in the project. Specific casting decisions and other creative details remain to be confirmed.
The reboot represents a significant renewal of a series that served as an entry point into musical theatre for many viewers and performers alike. Its return will likely attract long-time fans as well as a new generation on two major streaming platforms.
Further announcements on casting and production timelines are expected to be made in due course, offering insight into how the reboot will build on Glee’s established legacy.
