Felicity Huffman Talks ‘Desperate Housewives’ Reboot

Felicity Huffman said she's "all for" a reboot of "Desperate Housewives."

Felicity Huffman took a stroll down Wisteria Lane — at least in spirit — by weighing in on the upcoming “Desperate Housewives” reboot.

Long before Bravo’s housewives were flipping tables and stealing spotlights, Huffman and her band of perfectly imperfect suburbanites hit the ground running in 2004 on ABC, redefining what it meant to live behind a white picket fence.

Now, years later, “Scandal” star Kerry Washington will executive produce an upcoming revival, “Wisteria Lane.”

Washington’s involvement sparked discussion on Wednesday’s episode of “Good Morning America” when Huffman was asked to share her thoughts.

“Can I ask you about ‘Desperate Housewives?’” co-host Robin Roberts eagerly asked, noting the buzz surrounding the new take on the beloved drama.

“Isn’t that great,” Huffman said almost instantaneously. “They’re going to do Wisteria Lane with women of color — and I am all for it.”

After voicing her support, Huffman joked that she “will be doing craft services for the project.”

In case there were still any doubts about her enthusiasm, Huffman doubled down with a heartfelt nod to Washington.

“I just think it’s wonderful, and I’m a huge fan of Kerry’s,” she added.

Co-host Michael Strahan followed up, asking who she thought might take her former role.

“Oh my God, I have no idea. I think a lot of people could do it better than I did,” Huffman said modestly. “I can’t wait to see it.”
