Keri Russell is down to revisit Felicity Porter’s life if a Felicity reboot were ever to materialize.

Amid a press tour to promote the new season of Netflix’s The Diplomat, Russell was asked if she would reprise her role of Felicity.

“I would totally do that if it was the right stuff,” Russell said in an interview to E! News.

Russell said she is still in touch with her Felicity co-stars Scott Speedman and Amanda Foreman, “who played my crazy goth roommate.”

“We all still talk all the time,” she added. “They’re like my total pals.”

When asked what Felicity would be up to in 2024, Russell said, “Mandy had a good pitch for it, actually. A really good pitch for, like… life wasn’t going great and, you know, didn’t work out. And she was supposed to be all these things. And then she bumps into someone….”

Felicity is a show created by JJ Abrams and Matt Reeves that premiered in 1998 and ran for four seasons on The WB. The series followed Felicity Porter as she attended college in New York City after following her high school crush across the country from her home in California.

A love triangle between Felicity, Ben (Scott Speedman), and Noel (Scott Foley) persisted throughout the show’s run, with the question finally answered in the series finale, but not before a time-traveling episode to show an alternative ending.

Felicity was produced by Touchstone Television and Imagine Television, with Brian Grazer and Ron Howard serving as executive producers through Imagine Entertainment. The series also starred Amy Jo Johnson, Tangi Miller, Greg Grunberg, and Ian Gomez.
