Ryan Murphy revealed he has finished writing a script for a 'Glee' reboot, with most original cast members expressing enthusiasm. Speaking to Entertainment Tonight, Murphy stated he collaborated with co-creators Brad Falchuk and Ian Brennan to develop the script and has contacted around 10 cast members, though none have read it yet. The show, which aired from 2009 to 2015, remains a cultural touchstone, with Murphy noting its resurgence among younger audiences via streaming.

Murphy also discussed a potential 'Scream Queens' revival, revealing Ariana Grande was set to reprise her role as Chanel #2 in 'American Horror Story' season 13. However, her touring schedule for the 'Eternal Sunshine Tour' prevented the crossover. Murphy expressed continued interest in reviving 'Scream Queens,' citing enthusiasm from core cast members like Emma Roberts, Billie Lourd, and Lea Michele, though no formal plans have been announced.

While the 'Glee' reboot remains in early stages, Murphy emphasized the show's lasting legacy and his personal connection to the project. Meanwhile, 'Scream Queens' co-creator Ian Brennan reflected on the series' premature cancellation, attributing it to shifts in television consumption. Both projects highlight Murphy's ongoing efforts to revisit past works, though neither has secured a production platform or confirmed release date.
