New streaming service Quibi has announced when fans can expect the Reno 911! revival, with the new season set to premiere on Monday, May 4th.
Original stars Robert Ben Garant, Thomas Lennon, Kerry Kenney-Silver, Niecy Nash, Wendi McLendon-Covey, Cedric Yarbrough, and Carlos Alazraqui will reprise their roles from the series. Garant, Lennon and Kenney-Silver will write the new season with Danny DeVito, Michael Shamberg and Stacey Sher executive producing.
Also starring in the season will be Ian Roberts, Joe LoTruglio, and Mary Birdsong.
At the time the revival was announced, Lennon said “Reno 911! holds a special place in our hearts, and it will be a delight to get the original cast back together for ‘re-boot goofin,’” said Lennon. “Hopefully Nick Swardson can still roller skate. Quibi’s short format seems custom made for our show.”
The cult mockumentary series, a parody of police reality shows such as Cops, originally ran for six seasons on Comedy Central between 2003 and 2009, and also spawned the 2007 feature film Reno 911!: Miami.
