Judith Light Weighs In on Possibility of a ‘Who’s the Boss?’ Revival (Exclusive)

In the age of TV revivals, there’s only one question left to ask: Who’s the Boss?.

The beloved ‘80s sitcom, starring Tony Danza, Judith Light and Alyssa Milano, seems ripe for a reboot, but Light tells ET that might never happen.

“I don’t know,” she admits. “Nobody’s really talked about it, and I don’t know that that would… I mean, we’re all working. Tony’s got a show on Netflix, Alyssa’s working, Danny [Pintauro]’s working, and you know, Katherine [Helmond]’s working, I’m not sure we’d be able to put it together. Nobody’s really talked about it, so I don’t know.”

So, for now, it’s a big question mark. What’s not in question, though, is Light’s standout performance on FX’s The Assassination of Gianni Versace: American Crime Story as Marilyn Miglin, the widow of Lee Miglin, a victim of spree killer Andrew Cunanan. Light’s work as a woman forced to put on a brave face as she grapples with her husband’s murder, and alleged infidelity, has sparked major awards buzz. ET caught up with the actress at a For Your Consideration event for the show in Los Angeles on Monday night.

‘American Crime Story: Versace’ Cast on How They’ve Worked With the Designer’s Real-Life Family

“[An award] would mean that all people who were involved, who supported me in doing this, I would be able to thank them all, as I already have,” she gushes. “It would be an acknowledgment of this entire team, from my dear friend, Jon Robin Bates, who wrote me about it in the first place, to our producers, Brad Simpson, Nina Jacobson, and of course the extraordinary Ryan Murphy.”

“And Mike Farrell, who is a remarkable actor who plays my husband in the piece,” Light continues, “and Darren Criss and Ricky Martin and Edgar Ramirez and Penelope Cruz. I mean, you’re talking about, and Gwyneth Horder-Payton who directed it, and Tom Rob Smith who wrote it, so it would be a real acknowledgment of a team that put this together that really said, this was a story that needed to be told.”

‘House of Cards’ Newbie Cody Fern Says Final Season Is ‘Only Going to Get More Interesting’ (Exclusive)

House of Cards’ final season is shaping up to be “phenomenal,” according to new star Cody Fern.

“[There’s] an exciting energy,” Fern tells ET. “Listen, everyone is just so thrilled to be supporting Robin [Wright], and I think that she is a powerhouse, and it’s been about Robin since season two, and anyone who’s in denial of that hasn’t been watching the show. So, we’re just thrilled to get behind Robin and she is a powerhouse. I mean, what she is doing with Claire Underwood is phenomenal. And, it’s only going to get more interesting.”

Season six of the Netflix hit fully shifts focus to Wright’s President Claire Underwood after Kevin Spacey, who played Claire’s husband, Frank, was fired from the series following allegations of sexual misconduct. Spacey has denied any wrongdoing.

As for Fern, his character is still a secret. What he will confirm is, his character’s not a good guy.

“No one’s a good guy on this show!” he notes. “No one. Uh… that’s what I can tell you.”

“I can’t tease you with anything, only because it’s so under wraps!” Fern adds. “It’s even under wraps for the cast. We find out right before we’re shooting what’s happening. So, everything is a surprise and it’s, every moment in House of Cards is anew. I will tell you, I work with everybody in the show, so my character gets to do a lot of backflips.”

Fern’s House of Cards casting comes after he’s received rave reviews for his portrayal of David Madson, one of spree killer Andrew Cunanan’s victims, on FX’s The Assassination of Gianni Versace: American Crime Story. ET caught up with the 29-year-old actor at a For Your Consideration event in Los Angeles on Monday night.

“I think playing David has been a particular treat,” he gushed. “Obviously, it’s incredibly tragic, but the material for an actor was just… second to none … it’s been a real journey for me and… I’m just so grateful to be a part of it, you know?”
