OHMYGOSSIP — Miranda Hart is keen to “explore married life” for her sitcom alter ego.
The 44-year-old star brought her popular show ‘Miranda’ to an end two years ago when her titular character tied the knot with Gary Preston (Tom Ellis) and she admitted she would consider a comeback because she thinks it’s “lovely” that people are still interested.
She said: “It’s lovely that people always ask me about a comeback because it seems people want more and I’ve said I like the idea of exploring what the sitcom could be like seeing Miranda and Gary dealing with married life. So we shall see.
“Tom is of course busy being the devil [in ‘Lucifer’].”
However, fans may have to wait some time for a revival as Miranda is also tied up with a number of other projects once her stint in West End show ‘Annie’ comes to an end in January.
She said: “I am not enjoying the thought of finishing [the show]. But I have a children’s book coming out in October called ‘The Girl With the Lost Smile’ and then I have a couple of television projects but nothing I can reveal quite yet.”
While Miranda enjoys relaxing in front of the television, she admits sometimes her own career can “ruin” the viewing experience because she is so critical.
She explained in an interview with the Metro newspaper: “Being in comedy can sometimes ruin it because you watch with a critical eye, or you know people in the show, which can distract and you don’t end up laughing.
“But I have loved Tituss Burgess in ‘The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt’ recently. And ‘Modern Family’ I have always loved. Oh, and ‘Veep’.”
