The Queen of "Schitt's Creek" Catherine O'Hara has spoken about the show's potential reunion, and now it absolutely has to happen.
In interview with People magazine, O'Hara said she would "die" to do a reunion of the hit show; mostly because O'Hara likes working Dan Levy, Eugene Levy, and Annie Murphy.
"It's such a gift to work with people with whom you can collaborate. And they wrote such great scripts, and it was just so fun and so lovely," said O'Hara, who stars in the upcoming "Argylle." She added, "And really, I hate to say COVID was good for anything, but we really lucked out with Netflix showing the show. Then so many families being holed up, parents and adult children being holed up under the same roof."
After the show wrapped in 2020, the cast went on a mini tour to give fans a behind-the-scenes look at how they made the Emmy-winning show and their dynamic as its stars.
"I'd love to just be with them all again," said O'Hara. "Doing a movie would be wonderful. Yeah, I hope it happens."
About COVID and a family show resonating with audiences during that time, "So many people were going through that. So it turned out that [it was] just the timing ..." O'Hara adds. "You can't predict these things. It was the scripts, the idea of working with Eugene and Daniel, and then to have such a lovely experience with all of them."
The younger Levy, Dan, has also been very public in his desire to do a reunion of the show.
"My hope is that one day we can all get together," said Dan.
He added, "I see these people all the time. We're in constant contact with each other ... So the love is there. The desire to work together is there, and the desire to tell more stories is there."
And the fans are surely waiting.
