<a href="https://comicvibe.com/10-must-watch-disney-releases-this-november-2026/” title=”10 Must-Watch Disney+ Releases This November 2026″>Disney confirmed in October 2026 thata Glee reboot is heading to Disney+ and Hulu, with original cocreator Ryan Murphy at the helm and original studio 20th Television attached to the project.
“Currently gleeking out!” the show’s official Instagram page wrote alongside a graphic that read, “It’s official. Glee is returning.”
Disney has not revealed cast or plot details, but Murphy has already been deep into the writing process.
“I just finished the script an hour ago. We have a script.Brad [Falchuk] and Ian [Brennan] and I, who wrote all the first two seasons, have written something,” Murphy told Entertainment Tonightin September 2026, adding that he’s been “in touch with around 10 of the original cast members” who were “enthusiastic about the idea” of a reboot.
Here’s what every member of the McKinley High glee club has said — or hasn’t said — about returning for the reboot:
Lea Michele
Michele played Rachel Berry in all six seasons of the original series and has made it clear she’s in.
“I love Glee. I will always love Glee. I love Ryan Murphy,” the actress told E! News in September 2026. “[The show] just holds such a special place in my heart for me. So, I will follow Ryan wherever he goes.”
Varietyreported the next month that Michele was attached to reprise her role in the new series.
Becca Tobin
Tobin, who joined the series in season 4 as cheerleader Kitty Wilde and became a regular in season 5, said the reboot announcement prompted her anxiety.
“This gives me diarrhea,” she jokingly said onher “LadyGang” podcast in October 2026. “It’s a situation where I’m not an original cast member. I was not in season 1. I came in three seasons in. So, there’s no guarantee.”
As for the new series, Tobin theorized the writers to prioritize the original cast over the late arrivals.
“I know how incredibly challenging it’s going to be for them to weave in already these original cast members and the new people and the whatever. I don’t know what the plan is. I do know the original people will most likely be coming back. It’s not a mystery that Ryan has spoken to them.”
Dianna Agron
Agron, who starred as Quinn Fabray, has not publicly commented on the reboot, though she made a rare social media appearance in a TikTok video with singer Ben Platt the day the show was announced.

“Yes, ladies and gentle men of women, rumors are true. Brittany S Pierce was in fact lost in the sewers for all these years,” she wroteshe is alive and well… And back for more #Glee.”
