Some details involving the story of the Community movie have been revealed by Donald Glover, who played Troy Barnes in the series.
While speaking with The Hollywood Reporter to promote the Prime Video series Mr. & Mrs. Smith, Glover said that the Community movie’s story will involve a college reunion. In the film, Danny Pudi’s character Abed — a close friend of Glover’s character — is now a famous director like he aspired to be in the series, with the reunion serving as his “magnum opus.”
“Yeah, [Dan Harmon] told me what he wanted, and I was like, ‘This sounds great,'” Glover stated. “It’s a college reunion, but Abed is like this big director now, and basically this is his magnum opus. I’m like, ‘This sounds f—ing tight.'”
Filming on the Community movie was previously delayed as a result of last year’s entertainment industry strikes, but series star Joel McHale revealed a production date window for the film just last December.
When did the Community series end?
Community concluded its acclaimed six-season run in 2015 after jumping across multiple networks. The series has since gained further popularity through streaming services like Netflix, leading to a Zoom cast reunion that featured the entire main cast outside of Chevy Chase taking place in 2020.
