Can we talk Phil of the Future and how it’s possibly the actual best thing to have on Disney+? Great!
Raviv Ullman sat down with Seventeen.com to chat about the iconic series, which ended way too soon, and helped launch his, Brenda Song and Aly Michalka‘s careers.
The now 33-year-old actor opened up about why he thinks the show ended and if he’d be open to a reunion or reboot of the series.
“It can be a lot more expensive to shoot a single-camera show,” Raviv points out for a possible reason why the show ended only after 40 some episodes. A single-cam series shoots five days a week.
Plus, those special effects were definitely a factor: “I know that we were just a much more expensive show than what they were doing at the time. For a network, a lot of it is business and trying to figure out.”
However, it looks like Raviv is definitely up for a reunion or reboot of any kind, to get some sort of closure to that cliffhanger.
“I’m hoping that it means there’s still room for us to go and explore what that ending was,” he adds. “I’d like to think that Phil is still out there somewhere, trying to find his way back to Keely and his friends here. And with time travel, time doesn’t really exist in the same way, so anything’s possible…I would have no ill will towards a reboot. I think that they’re really fun.”
Disney, are you listening? Green light that Phil of the Future reunion!
Phil of the Future was one of the best, and also short lived series from Disney Channel.
Starring Raviv Ullman, Aly Michalka, Amelia Buckner and even Brenda Song, the series centered on the Diffy family from 2121, who got stuck in 2004 while on a family vacation.
During a new interview, Aly opened up on how much she keeps in touch with the cast and crew.
“I’m really good friends with one of the producers who directed and wrote a lot of the episodes,” she says. “I’ve been close to him since I was fourteen.”
Aly adds, “Raviv and I keep in touch; we’re Instagram buddies. Whenever I’m in New York or he’s in LA, we try to see each other and get lunch.”
And what about a reunion of any sorts: “I mean, sure! I guess reunions are a big thing now.”
“I wouldn’t be opposed to it. It’s a funny idea. I have no idea what they’d do necessarily with the storyline, but yeah, sure.”
Aly is in, we’re in. Let’s get this thing going now.
