Hulu and Disney+ have ordered a revival of Glee, the musical comedy that ran between 2009 and 2015. Lea Michele is set to appear, and Ryan Murphy has suggested that additional original cast members could return.
The first version centered on New Directions, a high-school show choir, and earned six Emmys. It was an Emmy-winning musical comedy.
The revival could affect longtime fans and streaming subscribers by renewing attention to the original series and its music. It may also create work for performers and production crews, and it could introduce the story to younger viewers.
