Deadline is reporting that the long-rumored Who’s The Boss? sequel series has finally found a home at Freevee. The project has been in the works since 2020.
Mike Royce will serve as writer and executive producer, while Brigitte Muñoz-Liebowitz will serve as co-executive producer. Norman Lear will also executive produce. While not involved with the original series, the series was added to his library under the Embassy Communications label, which is now a part of Sony Pictures TV. Danza and Milano will also receive producing credits.
The original series aired on ABC for eight seasons from 1984-1992. Danza played a former professional baseball player who moved in with his daughter to be a nanny for a single mother. The new series will pick up 30 years later with Tony being retired and living with his daughter, Samantha, who is now a single mother. Conflicts will arise from their differences and parenting styles and current events.
No word as of yet as to a possible timeline for the release of the series, or if there will be any sort of title change. The original series is currently available on Freevee.
