Dan Levy wants to do a Schitt’s Creek movie, but only if it’s “new and fresh”

“I think we’re going to let some time pass.”

Dan Levy has said that he is up for doing a Schitt’s Creek movie, as long as it’s “new and fresh.”

Ahead of PEOPLE magazine’s Sexiest Man Alive issue, Levy told the publication that he would be up for the idea of returning to the characters, but only if there was a good reason to.

“I don’t think there’s a single person on our team, cast or crew, that wouldn’t want to come back for a movie,” he said.

“But at the same time, I think the success of the show really was tied so closely to the care that was put into it and the quality that was put into it.

“If I can come up with an idea that I think builds on what we’ve already done in a way that feels good and exciting and new and fresh and challenges our actors, then great. I go to sleep willing that idea to come to me.”

Levy, who is currently starring alongside Bette Midler in HBO film Coastal Elites, added that despite this, he wants to give the Emmy award winning series a bit of time to breathe.

“It’s always good for people to miss you before you come back with something,” he said. “So I think we’re going to let some time pass. And in that time, hopefully, I’ll get a little inkling of desire to start exploring more seriously.”

This comes after Levy’s Schitt’s Creek co-star Noah Reid told us that he would absolutely be up for doing a movie, if one were to happen. 

Reid, who played Patrick on the TV show, said: “I think that if there is to be a movie it had better be a very good one,” he tells Her, “because going out with nine Emmys in our pocket I think is a pretty nice send off for the show.

“[But] I would be thrilled to work with all those people again.”

Make it happen so, lads.
