The Long-Awaited COMMUNITY Movie Is Finally Happening!

Six seasons and a movie! It’s actually happening! NBCUniversal’s Peacock has officially ordered a Community feature film that will bring a definitive end to the franchise.

This is awesome! Over the years the cast of the series and the fans believed that this movie would eventually happen, and after all these years, after more than 100 Cominity episodes, it’s finally going to get made!

Creator Dan Harmon will be developing Community: The Movie and it will feature original series stars Joel McHale, Danny Pudi, Alison Brie, Gillian Jacobs, Jim Rash and Ken Jeong.

Donald Glover, Yvette Nicole Brown and Chevy Chase are not returning, which is a shame. It would have been fun to see those characters return for the film. But hey, the fans will take what they can get, and I’m sure that Harmon will deliver a story that we’ll all enjoy.

Harmon and Andrew Guest will write and executibe produce while McHale, Russ Krasnoff and Gary Foster will executive produce the movie, which comes from Sony Pictures Television and Universal Television.

Susan Rovner, Chairman, Entertainment Content, NBCUniversal Television and Streaming said in a statement: “Six seasons and a movie started out as a cheeky line from Community’s early seasons and quickly ignited a passionate fan movement for this iconic, hilarious and cool NBC comedy. We’re incredibly grateful that 15 years later, we are able to deliver fans this promised movie and can’t wait to get to work with Dan Harmon, Andrew Guest, Joel McHale, Sony and our partners at UTV to continue this epic comedy for Peacock audiences.” 

Jason Clodfelter, Co-President, Sony Pictures Television Studios added: “Community was light years ahead of its time when it premiered on NBC in 2009 and we are thrilled to once again visit the brilliant minds of Dan Harmon, Andrew Guest and this impeccable cast. We are grateful to Peacock, our partners at UTV and to all the zealous fans who have cherished this iconic show.”

Erin Underhill, President, Universal Television said: “This franchise is the very definition of community. We’re excited to bring the band back together and continue the journey of these beloved characters.” 

Are you happy to learn that the Community movie is finally happening!?
