Alyson Hannigan Has A ‘How I Met Your Mother’ Spinoff Idea & Reveals Why She Didn’t Watch ‘How I Met Your Father’
deadline.comAlyson Hannigan starred in How I Met Your Mother for nine seasons and is ready for a new spinoff. In a new interview, the American Pie alum revealed she had an idea for a reboot that would focus on Jason Segel’s character, Marshall Eriksen. “It’s like, ‘No, no, no, no kids.
That’s not how it happened,'” Hannigan told People. “And then it starts out with, ‘We were a lot older, first of all …’ and then we can just do the show again.” Hannigan played Lily Aldrin, the character who eventually marries Segel’s Marshall.
The CBS sitcom, which premiered in 2005, followed Ted Mosby (Josh Radnor) as he tells his kids the story of how he met their mother.
Bob Saget narrated the series throughout its run as older Ted. How I Met Your Mother ended in 2014, and following multiple attempts at a spinoff, Hulu finally made it happen with How I Met Your Father in 2022.
