Curb Your Enthusiasm Season 12 Confirmed, Larry David Issues Statement

August 23, 2022

The long-running and incredibly popular HBO comedy series Curb Your Enthusiasm is coming back for another season.

HBO announced on Tuesday that they had renewed the series for its 12th season, which will include creator and star Larry David returning to the series, as well as many of its co-stars, including Jeff Garlin, Susie Essman, J.B. Smoove, Cheryl Hines, Richard Lewis, Vince Vaughn, and Ted Danson.

While it’s currently unknown how many guest stars will appear in the 12th season, the 11th season of the hit comedy saw appearances from the likes of Woody Harrelson, Kaley Cuoco, Bill Hader, Julie Bowen, Lucy Liu, Jon Hamm, Vince Vaughn, Tracey Ullman, Patton Oswalt, Albert Brooks, and Rob Morrow.

“Playing the role of Larry David has been the greatest honor of my life,” said David in a quote. “In researching this multi-faceted, multi-talented man, I discovered that there’s more to him than I ever could have imagined: He speaks six languages, brines his own pickles, and spearheads a national movement to install a bidet in every home. I’ve also been told from numerous sources that he is the most generous of lovers. I am so excited to once again transform into this force of nature. I only pray that I can do him justice.”

Debuting on HBO in 2001 and presenting 100 episodes to date, Curb Your Enthusiasm stars Seinfeld co-creator Larry David as an over-the-top version of himself in an unsparing but tongue-in-cheek depiction of his fictionalized life.

“The comedy series continues to prove how seemingly trivial details of one’s day-to-day life — a cold cup of coffee, a stained shirt, a missing toothbrush — can precipitate a catastrophic chain of events,” reads the official description. “To keep the narrative spontaneous, the series is shot without a script and cast members are given scene outlines and improvise lines as they go.”

It also currently stars Susie Essman (Broad City), Jeff Garlin (The Goldbergs), Cheryl Hines (Suburgatory), J.B. Smoove (Mapleworth Murders), Ted Danson (The Good Place), and Richard Lewis (Anything But Love).

Curb Your Enthusiasm was created and is executive produced by David. Executive producers are Garlin, Jeff Schaffer, and Laura Streicher, with Jon Hayman and Steve Leff serving as consulting producers.
