Jerry Seinfeld teased that he might be working with Larry David to revisit the Seinfeld finale.
During a Q&A segment of a stand-up show in Boston, the comedian revealed that a new project involving the seriesโ controversial ending might be in the works.
โSomething is going to happen that has to do with that ending. It hasnโt happened yet,โ Seinfeld said. โJust what you are thinking about, Larry [David] and I have also been thinking about. So, youโll see.โ
Many fans quickly speculated that the project would be an upcoming Super Bowl ad, as Seinfeld has used characters from his iconic show in multiple commercials in the past. His only other attempt at revisiting the show came in the form of a season-long meta arc on Curb Your Enthusiasm that saw the entire cast return for a fictional Seinfeld reunion.
Whatever format Seinfeld and Davidโs project eventually takes, itโs currently at a very early stage of development. So early, in fact, that one of the showโs main cast members was unaware of it. In a new interview with The Guardian, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, who played Elaine Benes for all nine seasons of Seinfeld, revealed that she hasnโt heard anything from Seinfeld and David about a potential reunion.
โYeah, I just saw last night,โ Louis-Dreyfus said when asked about Seinfeldโs comments. โAnd I donโt know what the hell heโs talking about.โ
Regardless of whether they choose to revisit Seinfeld, the showโs creative team has plenty of projects on their plates to keep them busy. Seinfeld is in post-production on his feature directorial debut โUnfrosted,โ which tells the story of the invention of Pop-Tarts, and Larry David recently completed the twelfth and allegedly final season of Curb Your Enthusiasm โ though his collaborators have teased that the HBO comedy might not be finished.
