Inbetweeners Revival Advances After Banijay Deal

Creators Iain Morris and Damon Beesley say they are plotting new adventures for The Inbetweeners, and a deal with Banijay UK has been struck to unlock rights across TV, film and stage. Reports say the four original leads—Joe Thomas, Simon Bird, James Buckley and Blake Harrison—are on board and a revival is expected next year, though format and platform remain undecided. Actors Martin Trenaman and Robin Weaver, who played Simon Cooper’s parents, posted a surprise selfie that reignited fan excitement. Joe Thomas has said he would like to spend more time with the cast but has been cautious about promising details. While many fans are enthusiastic, some have voiced concerns the reboot could be sanitised or made "woke," which they fear would change the show's original tone.
