Marc Cherry Considers Desperate Housewives Spinoff

Marc Cherry, the creator of Desperate Housewives, has expressed interest in developing a spinoff that revisits the beloved Wisteria Lane, potentially setting it in the 1960s. In interviews, he mentioned that he's been approached by roughly 70,000 fans requesting a reboot and has several ideas, though he emphasizes the need for a strong artistic rationale behind any revival. Cherry fondly recalls the original series, which aired from 2004 to 2012 and won multiple awards, and highlights his continued connections with the original cast, including Felicity Huffman and Marcia Cross. He notes the importance of casting and the relationships he built with the actors during the show's run. Cherry stated that any new project would not simply be a revival but would aim to explore new narratives within the familiar setting of Wisteria Lane.
