When “Curb Your Enthusiasm” wrapped up its 24-year-run in 2024, fans were concerned it would be the last time they’d see Larry David on screen. He had been saying the HBO sitcom was ending for the better part of the series’ run, and with Season 12 he finally called it quits. (“I said it before,” he told Variety at the time. “But I wasn’t 76 when I said it.”)

But his longtime collaborator Jeff Schaffer — who, in his early 20s, joined “Seinfeld” as a writer before becoming a major force behind the scenes of “Curb” — always knew David would be back on TV.
