'That 70s Show' Spin-Off In The Works But Is Wilmer Valderrama Reprising Fez?

By Liz Rowe

"That's 70s Show" star Wilmer Valderrama has spoken out about the potential of joining in the show's spin-off series.

"That 90s Show" will be available on Netflix in the near future.

While speaking with TV Insider, the 42-year-old "NCIS" actor casually expressed his support for the show's revival by saying, "I'm a little busy right now, but I support them so much."

"I have my fingers crossed for them. My best wishes are with them at all times."

Valderrama, on the other hand, revealed that he would be keeping the door open for a possible return to the sitcom's Netflix spin-off in the future.

His reasoning was as follows: "If the timing is good, I'd never say no."

The first episode of "That 70s Show" aired in August 1998, and the final episode was broadcast in May 2006.

Topher Grace, Laura Prepon, Mila Kunis, Ashton Kutcher, and Danny Masterson starred in the eight-season series.

Meanwhile, Wilver Valderrama will next be seen on television in the series "Zorro," in which he will play Don Diego de la Vega, the titular character. It will be based on the popular Disney television series of the same name from the 1950s.

Pre-production on the show is now underway.

Red and Kitty Forman will be back for the second season of "That 70s Show," which will be available on Netflix later this year.

Reports suggest that the series was ordered in October 2021, and it will take viewers back to the mid-1990s, when the kids from "That 70s Show" have grown up and moved away from Wisconsin.

The spin-off will take place in 1995 and will feature the daughter of Eric and Donna who will be spending the summer with her grandparents.

But she quickly makes friends with the new kids who have moved into the neighborhood.

Bonnie and Terry Turner, the show's co-creators, will return as showrunners, and their daughter Lindsey will be participating in the writing process as well.

Due to the fact that the show will be focused on their daughter, it is still uncertain whether or not Prepon and Grace will make an appearance on the show.

However, according to various sources, they will only make a brief appearance in the first season.

As reported by What's on Netflix, production on "That 90s Show" is set to begin in early 2022, with Variety Insight confirming that filming will take place between February 7 and April 30 of that year.

The show is being filmed at Sunset Bronson Studios, which is owned by Netflix.
