Dan Levy told CBS Sunday Morning that he was considering a “Schitt’s Creek” sequel series before the death of his co-star, Catherine O’Hara.
Although he asserted that a sequel series “can’t” be done now, Levy said he was “thinking about it” before O’Hara died.
During his interview, Levy visited the Rose Apothecary location from “Schitt’s Creek.” Levy said he hadn’t been back to the set since the show wrapped just before 2020.
“It’s tough, it’s tough being back,” he said. “I didn’t think that I’d have quite an emotional reaction.” He later added, “Just a lot of memories, a lot of memories with Catherine. It’s what you have to hold on to, is the memories of it all.”
O’Hara died on Jan. 30 in her Los Angeles home following a brief illness. She was 71.
O’Hara led “Schitt’s Creek” as the defrauded housewife Moira Rose. She co-starred alongside Dan Levy, Eugene Levy, and Annie Murphy. The show followed an exuberantly wealthy family who became penniless overnight after falling victim to fraud.
“Schitt’s Creek” premiered on Canadian broadcaster CBC in 2015 and ran for six seasons until 2020. The show won nine Emmys during its run, including an outstanding comedy series win and an outstanding lead actress award for O’Hara, both in 2020.
Highlights of O’Hara’s five-decade career in Hollywood include starring roles in films like “Best in Show,” “Home Alone,” “Beetlejuice” and “After Hours.” She also appeared in TV shows like “The Studio,” “The Last of Us,” “Central Park” and “The Last Kids on Earth.”
