Desperate Housewives Turns 20: Eva Longoria Has an Exciting Update for the Show But Her Recent Statement Contradicts Her Original Plans
Ever since Desperate Housewives ended its run in 2017, fans have been thirsting for more. They wanted the series to continue, and although they understood the finale to have been the end of the story, they could not help but want something more. This demand often comes in the form of a reboot. There have been many questions surrounding this topic that were asked of the cast and crew, and the topic has been brought up far too often.

Eva Longoria Teased A Desperate Housewives Reboot
In June 2023, Eva Longoria gave an interview with RadioTimes, where she talked about Desperate Housewives as a whole and touched on whether it has a future. When asked about the story of the original series continuing in the form of renewal, she was quick to say that she would be interested in joining such a project.

I’d be the first one to sign up. I’d probably be the only one. I always tell Marc [Cherry, creator]: ‘So, you wouldn’t do a reboot?’ He just thinks we have fully mined those characters,
He doesn’t know what else there is to say about those characters.

While this may be the case, Longoria added that a spin-off of sorts, with new characters, stories, and even cast, would be exactly what the series needed.
I think he’d do a new show on Wisteria Lane. A new set of women.
She even took it a step further, teasing the possibility of something a new take on the beloved story. The actress finished by adding that Cherry would love to be a part of such a series. It is safe to say that fans had expectations after these comments.
New Update for Desperate Housewives Comes With Disappointment
While many fans had a lot of expectations after Eva Longoria teased the closest thing to renewal, it would seem that now Desperate Housewives has planned something entirely different. It was recently reported by Film Updates that on the 20th anniversary of the beginning of the show, the actress has announced some exciting news for the series. The cast of the show is coming back for an official “special reunion.”

I hope no one will be left behind, even Teri Hatcher. Every main and second character/actor/actress in this show was awesome
