How I Met Your Father Revival Chances Get Disappointing Update From Exec



Disney Television executive Craig Erwich shares an unfortunate update on whether How I Met Your Father will receive a proper ending. The Hulu series is a sequel to the beloved CBS sitcom How I Met You Mother, focusing on Hilary Duff's Sophie and her own reflections on how she met the man she'd start a family with. Despite featuring some connections to the fan favorite flagship show, How I Met Your Father was cancelled after two seasons in 2023.

With five months passing since How I Met Your Father's cancellation prior to season 3, Erwich has revealed to Deadline that hopes of a proper conclusion to Sophie's story may go unaddressed. When asked whether a special or movie conclusion could be announced, the exec's answer was brief but said plenty. Check out Erwich's response below:

Furthermore, How I Met Your Father's titular mystery has yet to be answered, with only rumors offering even a glimpse at the individual Sophie would end up with. While a stand-up performance by a former writer suggesting Sid (Suraj Sharma) may be the father went viral, the answer was later rejected and explained away as an ever-changing part of the act. Had How I Met Your Father followed its parent series' example, the titular dad might not have even been introduced yet, as seen with Tracy's (Cristin Milioti) later debut in the original series.

Regardless of what could have been, Erwich's response to How I Met Your Father's potential future is sure to leave some disappointed. While not a firm refusal that a special or movie could ever be developed to tie up loose ends, this shows that plans for a continuation will not be going forward anytime soon. With an ever-changing streaming landscape, Disney may feel inspired to bring the series to a close in the future should the series receive renewed interest, but it is clear Sophie's love story won't find its happy ending just yet.
