Seinfeld ‘Reunion’ Project: Julia Louis-Dreyfus Shares Her Surprising Take

Despite Jerry Seinfeld’s hints last week that a Seinfeld reunion is in the works, former co-star Julia Louis-Dreyfus knows nothing of the sort.

During a recent stand-up set, Seinfeld told his audience that he has a “little secret” regarding the  controversial series finale, and that “something is going to happen” that has to do with that ending.

“It hasn’t happened yet,” he teased a Boston crowd last Saturday night. “And just what you are thinking about, Larry [David] and I have also been thinking about, so you’ll see… you’ll see.”

But Louis-Dreyfus, who played Seinfeld’s ex-girlfriend Elaine in the NBC sitcom, is denying knowledge of any such project.

“Yeah, I just saw [that news] last night,” she told The Guardian on Friday. “And I don’t know what the hell he’s talking about.”

Seinfeld hasn’t elaborated further about what he and David might have in the works — whether it’s a new scene, a reunion show or a full-blown revival. In 2018, Seinfeld told Ellen DeGeneres that bringing the beloved comedy back was a possibility, but left it at that.

Seinfeld previously reunited with Louis-Dreyfus, Michael Richards and Jason Alexander during Season 7 of HBO’s Curb Your Enthusiasm — a multi-episode arc that centered on David reassembling his all-star cast for a new series finale. The reunion show-within-a-show revealed that Elaine had a daughter… and Jerry was her sperm donor! We also learned that George made a fortune on an iPhone application — iToilet, which directed users to the nearest public restroom — then lost it all in the Bernie Madoff Ponzi scheme.

Do you think Seinfeld was overselling the mystery project? And that it will fall well shy of any “reunion”? Or is Louis-Dreyfus just ably bluffing like the multi-time Emmy winner she is?
