A White Collar revival is coming. That affirmation comes from collection creator Jeff Eastin and members of the solid — Matt Bomer, Tim DeKay, and Tiffany Thiessen. They all spoke about White Collar returning to the small display screen on Thursday at an occasion hosted by Variety. White Collar ran for six seasons on USA Network, with the finale airing in 2014.
No plot particulars in regards to the collection revival have been revealed, however scripts have been written. The revival will honor the reminiscence of Willie Garson, who starred as Mozzie within the collection. Garson handed away in 2021. Thiessen stated the next in regards to the script honoring Garson:
“With such sensitivity and such heart. I told Jeff after I finished it, I literally was so excited, but at the same time had tears in my eyes — for good reason. You captured the suspense, the thrill, the characters and the love in that reboot.”
“It’s a fantastic script and it answers all the questions that one would have if you watch the show,” DeKay stated, “and it would introduce the show to those who haven’t seen it as well. Both edges of the sword are honed. It honors Willie, too, in a profound way.”
The ending of White Collar in 2014 was left open-ended, with Neal Caffrey (Bomer) strolling away in Paris. Bomer was the primary to tease a potential return in November 2023.
Eastin stated the next about reviving the collection now:
“If you get to the finale, with Neal [Bomer] walking in Paris, that was always the setup. I always left it open, and as the years passed, it seemed more like a distant hope. But say thank you to Suits for starting this streaming trend. They were doing great, and got people watching White Collar now on Netflix. That’s doing really, really good. Off of that, it’s like, ‘Hey, let’s do another one.’”
The collection will probably land on Hulu as a result of Disney-owned Fox Television Studios was behind the manufacturing of the unique collection. However, a collection order has not been made but.
What do you think? Did you watch White Collar when it aired? Would you wish to revisit the characters right now?
