Jeff Garlin has hinted that Curb Your Enthusiasm could be shooting a new season later this year.

Curb Your Enthusiasm aired its eighth season in July 2011, but creator Larry David has not yet confirmed if the sitcom will be back for a ninth run.

Garlin - who plays Jeff Greene on the series - has now revealed to Entertainment Weekly that he is optimistic about the show's future now that David is finishing his upcoming HBO movie Clear History

"I'd say it looks good but it won't be any time soon," Garlin said of a potential ninth season.

He further explained: "I just finished my movie and [Larry's] finishing a movie that he did for HBO.

"So by the time he writes some more and says, 'Do you want to do them?' the earliest we'd start filming, if we did, would be the fall. We'll see. But I think it's pretty good."

Curb Your Enthusiasm's JB Smoove previously suggested that David is likely to make at least two more seasons of the hit show, but that claim has never been confirmed.

The largely improvised series has earned 38 Primetime Emmy Award nominations as well as winning a Golden Globe for 'Best Television Series - Musical or Comedy' in 2002.
