Will and Grace revival: Watch the original cast's musical return

Since concluding in 2006, Will & Grace fans have been praying for a revival.

When a 10-minute election special — urging people to vote — aired in 2016, those hopes neared reality. Then, earlier this year, NBC officially announced a new series was on the way, leaving hundreds overjoyed as 12 new episodes were confirmed.

Now, Eric McCormack, Debra Messing, Megan Mullally and Sean Hayes are back together, the new trailer for NBC’s revival having been released.

In the extended clip, Messing — who plays Grace — is reluctant to return, worrying things won’t be the same as before. Luckily, after some persuasion from the other three cast members through song and dance, she agrees to join the show once again. Watch below.

The series’ original creators, David Kohan and Max Mutchnick, are also back for the ninth series, along with regular director and executive producer James Burrows.

With Will & Grace being revived, will Friends follow? One can only hope. The revival will debut later this year on NBC.
