Can you believe it's been 19 years since Bones first aired?! (19 years, 4 months, 13 days to be exact.)
Why in the world did Bones end?
When Bones came to an end after 12 years in March 2017, million viewers tuned in to say goodbye to Seeley Booth (David Boreanaz), Doctor Brennan (Emily Deschanel), Doctor Lance Sweets (John Francis Daley) and Doctor Camille Saroyan (Tamara Taylor). And since then, they have been itching for a reunion.
Would a Bones reunion disappoint people?
Bones aired from 2005-2017 and is considered one of the most influential TV shows ever on pop culture. Although no original episodes have been shot since, it has remained a regular feature on many station's schedules. But Boreanaz said he's not sure if Bones would work today. “I don't want to see old Seeley Booth,” he told a journalist (Boreanaz turned 55 in May). “Everyone’s going to have different vision of what the character is like, so to have that materialize is going to disappoint most people,” he added.
Still hoping for a Bones movie?
In a recent interview, Luke Kleintank (who played Finn Abernathy between 2011 and 2014) said he can't imagine a Bones reunion hitting the big screen. “I'd rather people go, ‘Oh, please! Please!’ than ‘I can't believe you did that. It was horrible.’”
Co-star Katheryn Winnick (who played Hannah Burley between 2010 and 2011) has also previously explained, “It would be terrible to do something and have it not be good,”. “It was so terrific ... If we did a Bones movie and it sucked, then it would, you know, blemish it.”
On the subject of whether there could be a Bones film, Michaela Conlin stated : “I think it's a bit of a case of ‘the book is better than the movie’.”
What about a Bones reboot?
Recasting Bones for a modern reboot. Hollywood is known for remaking remakes of films or tv series and the studios might think it would be great to bring the story back with a new set of characters.
Be it in the form of a Bones reunion, a Bones movie, or a Bones reboot, if you had to start filming today, who would you cast in what role?
