Hulu announced Wednesday that former "Lizzie McGuire" star Hilary Duff is set to lead the sequel of the hit sitcom "How I Met Your Mother" from 20th Television.
The series, which is entitled "How I Met Your Father", had received a 10-episode order from the streamer.
The upcoming Hulu show is produced by Duff and is from the original creators' Carter Bays and Craig Thomas and writing duo Isaac Aptaker and Elizabeth Berger.
It will feature Duff playing the female version of the original’s lead character, Ted Mosby.
"How I Met Your Father" will revolve around a character named Sophie (Duff) telling her son about how she met his father and looking back at their friend group’s adventures and dating frolics from 2021.
"How I Met Your Mother" ran for nine seasons on CBS from 2005-2014 and starred Neil Patrick Harris, Alyson Hannigan, Cobie Smulders, Jason Segel, Mosby, and Josh Radnor.
Bays and Thomas said in a statement they see the new series as a passing of the torch of sorts and thanked all the fans who waited for the show.
The show has yet to announce a premiere date.
