'Community' Star Joel McHale Speculates on Eventual Movie Storyline, Talks 'Stargirl' Season 2

Earlier this spring and just weeks into lockdown stemming from the coronavirus pandemic, the beloved cast of the Dan Harmon-created sitcom Community sat down for a virtual table read of one of its funniest episodes to support COVID-19 relief charities. During the reunion, the stars revealed that the rallying cry behind the series' popular adage "six seasons and a movie" will eventually come to fruition.

While in conversation for the second season of his ABC game show Card Sharks, premiering Sunday, Oct. 18 at 10 p.m. ET, McHale delved into what he would like to see in the movie, ultimately revealing anything is possible — even joking how Greendale's beloved alums could be on an "aircraft carrier in space."

"I could never guess like where Dan's brain would go, and I would never. They asked my character what he was doing [during the virtual reunion]. I was like, 'He's probably with Elroy [Keith David] doing 'Hard Drive and Wingman' — the fake television show that we did in Season 6," McHale said during our episode of PopCulture @ Home, further adding how he couldn't even "guess" what is to come when the movie finally gets greenlighted. "I know that there's obviously interest, if Donald's into it, obviously that really helps. And if Dan's into it, then eventually when the script gets written […] I don't know if the deal will be made before the script […], but I'll be there in a New York minute to do it."
