Reboots have become a popular trend in Hollywood lately. Nostalgic viewers are eager for a return to the past, and «Home Improvement» has become a topic of discussion regarding a possible revival of the series. However, according to Tim Allen, production is stuck for one reason: certain issues with the actors.
«They keep talking about how it can move forward, but it gets stuck [because] there are some personality issues with the guys right now», - Allen said in an interview with Us Weekly in June 2026, referring to the actors who played his on-screen sons: Zachary Ty Bryan, Jonathan Taylor Thomas, and Taran Noah Smith.
The «Toy Story 5» star added, «They have their own issues. I always thought it would be great if it were a story about them. It’s a little complicated right now, to say the least».
So, will the «Home Improvement» reboot have a new cast? Here’s what we know about the new series.
Allen, who played Tim «The Toolman» Taylor in the original series, is focused on promoting «Toy Story 5», - in which he reprises his role as beloved Buzz Lightyear. His co-star Patricia Richardson, who played Jill on the show, has been landing steady roles in film and television over the years, with her most recent projects being «Grey's Anatomy», - «Last Man Standing», - and «County Line: No Fear».
As for Bryan, he was arrested in November 2025 for violating domestic violence rules. Previously, Bryan had been arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence, aggravated assault, and robbery.
Richardson stated in a podcast interview in 2024 that Thomas is no longer «interested in acting».
No. Despite Allen’s desire to revive the series, there have been no shifts towards a «Home Improvement» reboot yet. No official announcement regarding the cast has been made.
As mentioned earlier, Allen noted that his co-stars from the original series are experiencing «personality issues», - likely referring to Bryan’s legal troubles and Thomas and Smith’s lack of interest in returning to acting.
Allen emphasized that he would like the reboot to focus on his character’s sons. He told Us Weekly in June 2026 that he «always thought it would be great if it were a story about» Brad, Randy, and Mark
