Ryan Murphy's musical dramedy Glee is being rebooted for Disney+ and Hulu, with production officially greenlit. The original series premiered on Fox in 2009 and ran for six seasons until 2015, following high school students from Lima, Ohio who used music to navigate the challenges of adolescence.

Creator Ryan Murphy recently confirmed in an interview with Entertainment Tonight that a script has been written with collaborators Brad Falchuk and Ian Brennan. The show will be produced by 20th Television. Disney+ has not yet confirmed which members of the original cast will return, though Lea Michele is rumoured to reprise her role as Rachel Berry.

Glee became a cultural phenomenon during its run, with covers of songs such as 'Don't Stop Believin'', 'Teenage Dream' and 'Defying Gravity' becoming cult favourites. The music from the series remains popular, with more than 4 million listeners returning to it on Spotify each month.
