Larry David has confirmed that Curb Your Enthusiasm will return for a 12th season on HBO.
The beloved sitcom’s 11th season landed in the UK last October, after significant COVID-related delays.
At an Emmys event at the Directors Guild of America (DGA) last night (April 10), David appeared on a panel discussing Curb and its latest season.
During the panel, hosted by journalist Rich Eisen, David was asked whether the hit show would be returning for another season.
As Eisen tweeted: “So, I was honoured to emcee an [Emmys] panel for ‘Curb Your Enthusiasm’ tonight here in LA with most of the cast and asked Larry David the ultimate question: Will there be another season of Curb? He said yes.”

Released on March 1, The Larry David Story is a two-part documentary where he discusses his childhood and career breakthroughs with director Larry Charles.
“I never thought of myself as being funny,” David says in the trailer. “Anything I was associated with that could be successful was a shock.”
