If it were up to actor Jay Ellis, it would be a matter of time before HBO’s hit series Insecure is revived.
The actor discussed whether Insecure could make a comeback while speaking with E! News on the red carpet of the African American Film Critics Association Awards. Ellis said, “One hundred percent. I think with a little bit of time. These characters — we saw a lot of life, we saw a lot of growth. I think they need to live a little bit.”
Despite his opinion, Ellis mentioned that creator Issa Rae had the biggest say regarding Insecure’s future.
“You gotta ask Issa, man,” he said on a potential revival of the show. “She can give you that answer. If I tell you yes, then she’s going to call me tomorrow and I’m going to be in a lot of trouble.”

Ellis shared that he’d absolutely reprise the role of his character Lawrence “when the time is right” if he’s ever asked to return to an Insecure set. He also revealed that cast members — series regulars and guests — are in group chats with “a lot of memes being sent back and forth.”
