Stonestreet has suggested a two-hour movie as a potentially interesting alternative
Eric Stonestreet, best known for his role as Cameron Tucker on Modern Family, has commented on the fate of a spin-off centered on Cam and Mitch, revealing that the project has been abandoned. However, the actor has shared some ideas for how the franchise could continue in the future, expressing his desire to make a Christmas special.
Will there be a Modern Family movie?
In an interview with Graham Bensinger, Stonestreet reflected on the potential of a Modern Family spin-off, saying that if it did make it to the air, it could still be a successful show. He noted that while it is no longer in development, he remains optimistic about the possibility of bringing the characters back to the screen. His proposal for the franchise is to create festive specials, similar to the Christmas specials typically produced by British series such as Doctor Who and Sherlock.
“It would be nice to do a Christmas special or something like that. There have been discussions about it. Some writers have suggested doing a version similar to British Christmas specials. A two-hour movie every now and then would be really fun.”
Stonestreet suggested a two-hour movie as a potentially interesting alternative, allowing for a revisit of the characters in a larger format. Modern Family was one of the most acclaimed sitcoms of its era, and the spin-off’s demise doesn’t seem to signal the end of interest in the franchise. There have been frequent reunions between the cast, suggesting a good rapport between the actors and a willingness to reunite for future projects.
