Lucy Hale said she believes the Pretty Little Liars cast would be interested in a revival, but bringing them together would require compatible schedules and a suitable script and storyline. She discussed the possibility with Entertainment Tonight alongside former co-star Ian Harding.

The actors, who played Aria and Ezra in the ABC Family/Freeform series, have reunited for Hulu’s holiday film The 12 Dates of Christmas. Questions about returning to their earlier roles came during promotion for the movie.

Imagining Aria’s life since the series, Hale said she believes the character would still be with Ezra, have children and have written books. She also suggested that the women who left Rosewood might eventually return, unable to fully leave the town behind.

Harding said he hoped the characters would have achieved some, though not all, of what they wanted before an event reunited them. Hale floated a tragedy as a possible reason for their return to Rosewood, along with a new incarnation of A.
