If you can't get enough of Hilary Duff [1]'s character on Younger [2], we have good news! According to The Hollywood Reporter, ViacomCBS and Darren Star are developing a spinoff series that revolves around Duff's character, Kelsey Peters [3]. The series is still in early developments and currently being shopped for Paramount Network and other platforms.
Younger, which currently airs on TV Land, was renewed for a seventh season back in July 2019 [4]. Though an official release date hasn't been announced yet, it's possible that season seven could include a backdoor pilot for the upcoming spinoff. Perhaps the new series will revolve around Kelsey as a new member of the board at Empirical publishing?
The Younger spinoff isn't the only NYC-centric series Duff has in the works. She is also set to reprise her Disney Channel character for the Lizzie McGuire reboot [5] on Disney+. Though production was recently put on hold due to "creative differences, [6]" it seems like things might be getting back on track [7].
"There's still conversations going on in hopes that we can find a way to meet in the middle and both bend a little bit," Duff told People in April. "I understand that they have to protect their brand and there's pretty strict guidelines on what that looks like. I just have to make sure it's the right move for me and that I feel like I'm honoring her and the character, and that it will be relatable to the people who grew up with her because those are the people I really want to speak to."
