It's been seven years since Community aired its final episode, but a Community movie is finally happening.
Penned by series creator Dan Harmon with writer Andrew Guest, Community the Movie will reunite stars Joel McHale, Danny Pudi, Alison Brie, Gillian Jacobs, Jim Rash, and Ken Jeong. It won't be a full house, however, as Donald Glover, Yvette Nicole Brown, and Chevy Chase are not currently attached to star.
"'Six seasons and a movie' started out as a cheeky line from Community‘s early seasons and quickly ignited a passionate fan movement for this iconic, hilarious and cool (cool, cool) NBC comedy," said NBC Universal Television’s Chairman of Entertainment Susan Rovner in a statement.
"We’re incredibly grateful that 15 years later, we are able to deliver fans this promised movie and can’t wait to get to work with Dan Harmon, Andrew Guest, Joel McHale, Sony and our partners at UTV to continue this epic comedy for Peacock audiences."
The original series, currently streaming on Netflix, Hulu, and Prime Video, will also be available to stream on Peacock soon.
Community the Movie is slated for a 2023 release.
