The long-awaited spin-off from How I Met Your Mother will follow the same format, with the lead character Sophie, played by Hilary Duff, speaking to her children from the future as she details how she met their father (it’s not a hard concept to follow). Just like in the original, Ted of the future narrated the series, but it wasn’t present Ted- Josh Radnor speaking. It was comedian Bob Saget.
Kim Cattrall Has Signed on For Hulu’s How I Met Your Father
While Hilary Duff’s Sophie and friends get up to all sorts of hi-jinx in 2021, future Sophie will narrate…with the famous voice of Sex and the City alum, Kim Cattrall.
Like Saget, it is not expected the actress , who was not involved in the Sex and the City reboot, And Just Like That, will ever been seen by audiences. Even in flash fowards in How I met Your Mother, like when Ted attended his college reunion and when, at long last, audiences saw him talking to his children, rather than just seeing his kids’ reactions, Josh Radnor was aged up to continue playing the role.
The original How I Met Your Mother creators, Carter Bays and Craig Thomas, are executive producing the series with This Is Us showrunners Isaac Aptaker and Elizabeth Berger taking the reins this time round.
Cattrall’s addition to the cast that includes Duff, Francia Raisa, Tom Ainsley, Tien Tran, Suraj Sharma, Chris Lowell, and Brandon Micheal Hall is giving fans of the original hope that the 10 episode first season will get an air date on streaming service, Hulu very soon.
Very little has been leaked about the new comedy, other than a few photos from Duff of the new cast on set. It is not known yet if there is any connection between the old group of friends and the new group- like if Ted’s children Penny or Luke (last played by Lyndsy Fonseca and David Henrie )are a part of the new group of friends, or if Barney Stinson (the irreproachable Neil Patrick Harris) will pop by to hit on the young ladies at all.
