Let’s hope this one has a happier ending.

Hulu has made a 10-episode, straight-to-series order for How I Met Your Father. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Duff will star and the creators of How I Met Your Mother, Carter Bays and Craig Thomas, are returning to the sequel series to executive produce alongside This Is Us showrunners, Isaac Aptaker and Elizabeth Berger. Aptaker and Berger will also oversee HIMYF.

Hilary Duff announced today on her Instagram that she is excited to take the lead in the upcoming sequel to the long-running CBS sitcom.

According to a press release for the show, “in the near future, Sophie (Duff) is telling her son the story of how she met his father: a story that catapults us back to the year 2021 where Sophie and her close-knit group of friends are in the midst of figuring out who they are, what they want out of life and how to fall in love in the age of dating apps and limitless options.” Duff is on board to produce the show.

Aptaker and Berger said they can’t wait for audiences to meet Sophie and her crew while watching them “come into their own and find love in modern-day New York City.” Hilary Duff fans can rejoice; it was mere months ago that she announced that a planned Disney+ reboot of Lizzie McGuire had been cancelled. She’s currently starring on the TV Land series, Younger, now in its seventh and final season. That show is also available on Paramount Plus.

How I Met Your Mother aired on CBS for nine seasons and racked up over 200 episodes from 2005-2014 and starred Josh Radnor, Cobie Smulders, Neil Patrick Harris, Jason Segel, and Alyson Hannigan. Bob Saget provided the voice of the narrator, an older version of Radnor’s character Ted Mosby. Many fans, however, were let down by the show’s ending, which (SPOILER) killed off the titular mother shortly after introducing her.

This is the second attempt to create a sequel: CBS ordered a pilot for How I Met Your Dad in 2013 that starred Greta Gerwig with Meg Ryan attached as the narrator. The project was ultimately not picked up to series.

“Carter and Craig’s iconic original series revolutionized the half-hour comedy, and we are so honored to be carrying the torch forward for the next generation — and with Hilary Duff no less! (W)e hope nobody thinks it’s weird that Bob Saget will be playing old Hilary Duff’s voice.”
