Max Mutchnick’s groundbreaking gay sitcom Will And Grace will be returning to television in the near future. Although the shape and form of the reunion is still unknown, the legendary cast has been hinting at this possibility for a while now.

According to the WoW Report, all four main cast members (Eric McCormack, Debra Messing, Megan Mullally and Sean Hayes) are ready and willing to participate in the special, eight years after the show’s conclusion.

One of the only details to emerge is that the filming will take place on the same soundstage where the original show was shot, with the original producers and director James L. Burrows already on board with NBC. (Could the original set’s departure from Emerson College be a sign?)

So, will the new special continue the timeline established in the series finale? Or will we see an alternate 2014 future?
