The beloved cast of Superstore reunites for a super-sized gathering, but one major star is noticeably absent Will this epic reunion pave the way for a highly anticipated Superstore revival? Find out all the exciting details!
Summary
The cast of Superstore recently had a reunion dinner in Los Angeles, although America Ferrera was missing.
Following the conclusion of the show in 2021, there were rumors about a spinoff centered around Bo and Cheyenne; however, NBC ultimately chose not to proceed with the project.
Although there is currently no action being taken to revive Superstore, the reunion brings about a glimmer of hope for a potential comeback in the future.
The Superstore cast had a grand reunion, with only one actor missing. The show premiered in 2015 and revolved around the lives of employees working at a fictional big-box store in Missouri. It aired for six seasons on NBC, comprising 113 episodes. The cast consisted of a diverse group of regular and recurring actors, including America Ferrera, Ben Feldman, Lauren Ash, Colton Dunn, Nico Santos, Nichole Sakura, and Mark McKinney.
On Instagram, Dunn, who portrayed Garrett McNeil, posted a picture of the recent reunion dinner held in Los Angeles. The image showcases nearly the entire ensemble gathered together.
Will a Superstore Revival Happen?
NBC comedy actors gathered for a group photo, with the notable absence of Ferrera (Amy). Feldman (Jonah), Ash (Dina), Santos (Mateo), Sakura (Cheyenne), McKinney (Glenn), and Kaliko Kauahi (Sandra) were all in attendance. Recurring actors Jon Barinholtz (Marcus), Irene White (Carol), and Kelly Schumann (Justine) were also present, along with series creator Justin Spitzer.
In December 2020, there were reports about a potential spinoff featuring Bo (played by Johnny Pemberton) and Cheyenne. While the spinoff had already secured its writers, Bridget Kyle and Vicky Luu, it ultimately didn't progress to be broadcasted. Following the conclusion of the Superstore series in March 2021, Kyle announced that NBC had decided against moving forward with the spinoff.
Following the finale, the writers have discussed potential ideas for the seventh season of Superstore, specifically focusing on Garrett and Dina. At this point, there has been no active progress towards bringing the show back, as its conclusion is still relatively fresh. The cast and creator have all moved on to other projects, including Ferrera who recently had a significant role in the successful film Barbie.
The upcoming reunion gives fans hope for a potential revival of Superstore. Given the positive relationship between the cast and creator, it's not entirely unrealistic to anticipate a follow-up project. However, it would likely be necessary to allow more time to pass since the show's original ending, providing the characters with enough development and changes to create a compelling storyline.
