Jason Alexander and Julia Louis-Dreyfus Are Dubious About a Seinfeld Reunion: ‘No One Called’

Jason Alexander and Julia Louis-Dreyfus are openly clueless about the status of a Seinfeld reunion.

Alexander — who was nominated for seven Emmys for his portrayal of George Costanza during the NBC sitcom’s nine-season run — admitted he was in the dark even though creator and star Jerry Seinfeld hinted there was a project in the works.

“I don’t know anything about that,” Alexander said Extra, referencing Seinfeld’s standup set in Boston where he teased the show’s possible return. “Nobody called me. Apparently they don’t need George.”

And Alexander claimed that he was not the only one who was not invited.

“They might not need Elaine, because Julia and I said ‘Do you know anything about this? I don’t know anything about this,'” he added. “And I just talked to Michael [Richards] the other day and I don’t think he knew anything about it.”

Louis-Dreyfus, 62, also said Guard in October from Seinfeld: “I don’t know what the hell he’s talking about.”

Twenty-five years after the series ended in 1998, the comic of the same name sparked speculation about a potential revival during a standup set in October when an audience member asked Seinfeld, 69, if he “liked the ending.”

“End. Series? Well, I have a little secret for you about the end. But I can’t tell you because it’s a secret,” he teased.

“Here’s what I’m going to tell you, OK? But you can’t tell anyone,” he continued. “Something is going to happen with that ending – it hasn’t happened yet.”

After the audience broke into applause and cheers, he added, “And just what you were thinking, Larry [David] and I thought about. So you’ll see.”
