'Community,' the cult-comedy TV show by Dan Harmon, is officially getting its six seasons and a movie with most of the original cast, including Joel McHale, ...

Though they were not mentioned in the official release, [McHale tagged Glover and Brown in a tweet soft-announcing the project](https://twitter.com/joelmchale/status/1575852929415671808). [an episode of Good One](https://www.vulture.com/article/dan-harmon-community-movie-good-one-podcast.html), it was clear he was starting to think about the movie practically, weighing what the movie would need to be both a satisfying reunion and enjoyable film in its own right. When Vulture spoke to him in the summer of 2021, for To set the scene, it is the end of Community’s second season and the show has developed a lot of goodwill among TV critics and superfans but not as much for the average network-sitcom viewer. (Same for Jonathan Banks, Paget Brewster, and Keith David, all of whom became members of the “study group” in the later seasons.) Jeff (McHale) screams, “The show’s gonna last three weeks!” To which Abed replies, “Six seasons and a movie!” And so it was written. The cast members would say some version of they’d do it if Harmon wrote it, and Harmon would offer some self-deprecation. The status of Donald Glover, who left the show in its fifth season; Chevy Chase, who left during the fourth season and was killed off in the fifth; or Yvette Nicole Brown, who left the show at the end of its fifth season, is unclear. 2: Butt soup.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IxqeRB8Kp6k) Written and executive-produced by Community creator Dan Harmon and Andrew Guest, a writer on the show’s first two seasons responsible for such classic episodes as “Advanced Dungeons & Dragons” and “A Fistful of Paintballs,” the Community movie will reunite some of the original series’ stars: Joel McHale (who is also executive-producing), Danny Pudi, Alison Brie, Gillian Jacobs, Jim Rash, and Ken Jeong.

The Community film will feature members from the series' original cast, including Joel McHale, Danny Pudi, Alison Brie, Gillian Jacobs, Jim Rash and Ken Jeong.

[Reviewed](https://www.reviewed.com/) have all your shopping needs covered. The streaming platform will host the movie as well as the entire six-season series (which is also streaming on Netflix and Hulu). It also plays host to countless Universal films, including Jurassic Park, E.T.: The Extra-Terrestrial and Back to the Future! It's unlikely Chase will appear in the film; his tenure during Community was messy and his character was ultimately killed off, but we can never really say never when a series produces a movie seven years after its run. Peacock will exclusively stream the film, which comes from Sony Pictures Television and Universal Television. After a particularly ill-received fourth season, Harmon returned for the final two seasons. The Community film will feature members from the series' original cast, including Joel McHale, Danny Pudi, Alison Brie, Gillian Jacobs, Jim Rash and Ken Jeong. The cult-favorite series ended its six-season run in 2015, and after seven years of speculation, Peacock announced the long-anticipated film is finally coming. [NBC Peacock](https://imp.i305175.net/c/50053/828265/11640?subId1=USA-FTR-STM-&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.peacocktv.com%2F). [Peacock](https://imp.i305175.net/c/50053/828265/11640?subId1=USA-FTR-STM-&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.peacocktv.com%2F) offers three subscription plans at various price points: Free, Premium and Premium Plus. [Peacock for $1.99 a month](https://imp.i305175.net/c/50053/828265/11640?subId1=USA-FTR-STM-&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.peacocktv.com%2F) This is refreshing to long-time community fans: Harmon acted as showrunner for the series' first three seasons before departing.

McHale's tweet also tagged Allison Brie, Ken Jeong, Danny Pudi, Yvette Nicole Brown, Donald Glover, Gillian Anderson, Peacock, Sony TV, and the show's Twitter.

“This franchise is the very definition of community,” added Erin Underhill, President, Universal Television. We are grateful to Peacock, our partners at UTV and to all the zealous fans who have cherished this iconic show,” said Jason Clodfelter, Co-President, Sony Pictures Television Studios “We’re incredibly grateful that 15 years later, we are able to deliver fans this promised movie and can’t wait to get to work with Dan Harmon, Andrew Guest, Joel McHale, Sony and our partners at UTV to continue this epic comedy for Peacock audiences.” A Community movie has been a topic of conversation by fans of the cult hit for years. McHale is set to come back for the movie as well as exec produce. Gillian Jacobs was a part of the original cast.

Joel McHale, Danny Pudi, Alison Brie, Gillian Jacobs, Jim Rash, and Ken Jeong are all slated to make their return.

However, McHale also [shared the news](https://twitter.com/joelmchale/status/1575852929415671808) on Twitter, tagging former co-stars [Donald Glover](https://www.avclub.com/donald-glover-to-reunite-with-community-cast-for-charit-1843329644) and Yvette Nicole Brown, who may (or may not) make an appearance in the movie. However, it’s managed to not only persevere, but come out on top, as the movie’s actually fucking happening! The steep price is the annoying part, but luckily you can make them slightly less annoying by picking them up now for $70 off. [Variety](https://variety.com/2022/tv/news/community-movie-peacock-dan-harmon-joel-mchale-1235389233/), those officially returning for the follow-up film include series stars Joel McHale, Danny Pudi, [Alison Brie](https://www.avclub.com/alison-brie-still-skeptical-about-the-community-movie-1849557723), Gillian Jacobs, Jim Rash, and Ken Jeong. Peacock has swooped in to finally fulfill the long promise of “six seasons and a movie,” with series creator [Dan Harmon](https://www.avclub.com/dan-harmon-still-believes-in-a-community-movie-despite-1847310182) returning as an executive producer and writer. The show, which centers on a community college study group, originally ran from 2009-2015.

Streets ahead! The Community movie is now confirmed but will Donald Glover, Yvette Nicole Brown, or "The Chevy That Shall Not Be Named" return for it?

If Troy, Shirley, and other other tertiary Community characters are indeed involved in the film, we likely won’t find out officially until closer to the movie’s release date (which is still TBD). In announcing the news of the film, Peacock also confirmed that a significant chunk of the cast will be returning. While raising one’s hand during a Zoom call is not a legally-binding contract, it is a good sign that Harmon would wait until everyone was actually ready to commit before pulling the trigger on a film. Certainly, a Community movie will make every effort to incorporate as many characters as possible (also likely including background faces like Star-Burns, Magnitude, and Vicki). [As recently as 2020](https://variety.com/2022/tv/news/community-movie-peacock-dan-harmon-joel-mchale-1235389233/), Harmon revealed that he was actively working on an outline for the script. This is something that fans have been waiting for ever since Abed Nadir (Danny Pudi) uttered the now-prophetic line in season 2’s “Paradigms of Human Memory.”

Sure, the show managed the six-seasons part of Abed's prophecy (originally meant for the NBC superhero drama The Cape, which managed one season and zero movies) ...

This last award is an apt action-packed legacy for a show whose list of directors includes the Avengers’s Russo Brothers and Fast and the Furious’ Justin Lin. (Though it has a very different look and a darker comedic sensibility, it’s worth noting that the Yahoo season—led once again by Harmon, who was gone for season four—is very much worth watching if you skipped it, as many fans did.) [worked hard to save the show](https://www.insider.com/fans-saved-tv-show-2018-6#community-found-a-new-home-thanks-to-yahoo-after-nbc-canceled-the-series-14) after it was first canceled in 2014. When the season six finale aired, Community had neither been renewed nor canceled, and what ended up being the series finale played with that sense of uncertainty. The phrase “Six seasons and a movie” has long been a bittersweet one for fans of the cult sitcom Community. There’s no clear sense of what the plot will be, although, during May’s charity table read, [Glover floated the idea](https://screenrant.com/community-movie-story-details-prediction/) of a story around what happened to his character Troy–he leaves Greendale to sail around the world with actor LeVar Burton–that was enthusiastically received by Harmon.

Here's everything we know about the just-announced 'Community' movie coming to Peacock.

So yes, a Community movie is confirmed, but it looks like you’ll have to watch it on Peacock. That’s particularly surprising for Brown and Glover, who both left the show before it officially ended to pursue other opportunities. But like so many aspects of the beloved sitcom created by [Dan Harmon](https://www.inverse.com/article/36696-rick-and-morty-season-3-female-writers-harassment-dan-harmon), “Six seasons and a movie” went on to become much more. In response, the streaming platform shared this: You may have noticed that among the accounts McHale tagged with his tweet is the official one for Peacock. Ken Jeong (who plays Ben Chang) also tweeted the same image.
