The comedy series Reboot is moving forward at Hulu with its three leads revealed. Per Variety, the show was originally ordered to pilot at Hulu back in August, and now it’s officially been given its series order. Johnny Knoxville, Keegan-Michael Key, and Judy Greer will be leading the cast; Leslie Bibb played Greer’s role in the pilot.

Reboot takes aim at the latest trend in Hollywood of rebooting nearly every successful movie and television show from the past. Created by Steve Levitan, the series begins with Hulu rebooting an early 2000s family sitcom, forcing its dysfunctional cast to come back together. Now, they must deal with their “unresolved issues” in a new world very much unlike how things were 20 years ago.

Keegan-Michael Key stars in Reboot as Reed Sterling, described as a “fussy actor on the fictitious family multi-cam sitcom, Step Right Up, who graduated from the Yale school of drama and resents the show for ruining his career.” Johnny Knoxville will play Clay Barber, a “dark and filthy standup comedian whose only real acting job was on the same bright and sunny sitcom.” Judy Greer also stars as Bree Marie Larson, a “small-town pageant girl who always dreamed of being an actress and a princess and both somehow came true.” The cast also includes Rachel Bloom stars as Hannah, the sitcom writer with a fresh take; Calum Worthy as hyphenate movie star/hip-hop artist Zack, and Krista Marie Yu as Elaine, a tech exec turned television creative exec.

“Steve’s incredible track record speaks for itself. Modern Family was brilliant and massively appealing, making millions upon millions of viewers laugh week-after-week and quickly becoming a global sensation,” adds Jordan Helman, head of scripted content for Hulu. “We’re honored that Hulu will be home to Steve’s return to television with Reboot and given our slate of successful comedies such as Only Murders in the Building, Pen15, Ramy and more, we know our viewers will devour this hilariously meta satire.”

“Steve Levitan is a comedy genius and his idea for Reboot is as hilarious as it is timely,” said Karey Burke, president of 20th TV. “We’re thrilled that our friends at Hulu love this sly, wildly funny look at the television comedy business as much as we do. And the spectacular cast Steve’s assembled speaks to both the quality of the writing and the appeal of this platform as a home for smart, high quality television. Everyone jumped at the chance to come on board.”

It’s not yet clear when Reboot will make its way to Hulu for streaming, but given the talent involved, the series does seem to be one for Modern Family fans to check out when it arrives.
