Six seasons and an increasingly feasible movie - this is what Community series creator Dan Harmon seems to be promising.

The cult comedy appears to be over as a TV proposition after the Yahoo-aired sixth season but, in an interview on Larry King Now, Harmon seems to have revealed how it could live on:

"I mean, it'll make a great movie," he replied to King after being asked in what form it could come back. "It'll happen."

Harmon stopped short of saying when said movie could happen, though with almost every lead actor from the show now engaged in other projects:

“If I pull out a typewriter right now and write a Community movie just for my own heart and mind," he explained, "then I have to go through the heartbreak and agony of finding out which of the people are going to show up to make it. On the other hand, if I wait for everybody to line up and say ‘we’re all out of work and ready to do a Community movie,’ then I guess that’s a bad idea, too.”

Joel McHale, who played lawyer-turned-student-turned-questionable-cool-guy Jeff Winger on the show, has previously said how sure he is a movie will happen, saying that the first hurdle is getting Harmon to write the thing:

“I think what has to happen is that Dan [Harmon] needs to write the script. It's a tall order for someone. ‘Go write a brilliant movie script on a beloved show that you've been writing for six years. Go! Just go ahead and do that!’”
