Curb Your Enthusiasm is set to return in 2017 (date TBD), following what will have been a six year hiatus. The show's eighth season ended with Larry David being kicked out of NYC by then-Mayor Bloomberg, briefly returning to L.A., then visiting Paris, where we left him ranting on the picturesque streets. That could have been the last we saw of him, but HBO has always left the door open for a return, and earlier this year announced it would indeed be coming back.
It's been quiet on the Curb front since the June announcement, but Deadline is now reporting on some casting details: Ted Danson and Mary Steenburgen will be joining the core cast, along with "[Larry] David, Jeff Garlin, Cheryl Hines and Susie Essman—who also are set to come back."
The husband-wife duo have played themselves on the show since the pilot (called "Ted and Mary"), and have been in 13 (of the 80) episodes since.
