Larry David's Golden Globe-winning comedy series has been renewed for a tenth season, with production starting in spring 2018. The show returned for a ninth season back in October and recently concluded in December.
"We are thrilled that Larry will be back with his uniquely acerbic wit and comedic sensibility," Casey Bloys, president of HBO programming, said in a press release on Thursday. David added, "As I've said many times, when one has the opportunity to annoy someone, one should do so."
During this year's Roots Picnic J.B. Smoove announced that Curb Your Enthusiasm would be making its return on October 1. HBO then confirmed it when a trailer for the series was released shortly after.
Jeff Garlin, Susie Essman, J.B. Smoove, Cheryl Hines, Richard Lewis, Bob Einstein, Ted Danson, and Mary Steenburgen all joined David in the season nine return. David, Garlin and Jeff Schaffer served as executive producers, with the latter serving as showrunner.
In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter shortly after season nine's finale, Schaffer discussed coming up with story ideas with David for the show's tenth season.
"We really are at the stage of talking about talking about it — and that’s how every season starts. Larry never wants to commit to a season unless he’s absolutely sure he’s going to like everything that season entails," Schaffer said. "He never wants to feel like he has to do the show because he said he’d do the show. So if we do another season, we’ll work on it until he’s super happy with it and confident that he’s actually going to shoot the episodes, and then we’ll tell somebody so we can actually shoot them."
