Matt Bomer Praises 'Fantastic' White Collar Revival Script: Picks Up Right Where It Left Off

White Collar Revival

In exciting developments for White Collar enthusiasts, Matt Bomer has teased the possibility of a revival of the hit series. In an exclusive conversation with PEOPLE, the 46-year-old star offered insights into a reboot script crafted by co-creator Jeff Eastin.

Bomer’s excitement about revisiting his role as Neal Caffrey, the charming con artist turned FBI consultant, was palpable. He shared that Eastin’s new script stays true to the original six-season show, which captured viewers from 2009 to 2014.

“The script is fantastic and perfectly aligned with the world we created for six seasons,” Bomer remarked during the interview. “It genuinely feels like Jeff was able to pick up the story exactly where it left off.”

The potential reboot also offers a meaningful chance to honor late cast members Willie Garson and Diahann Carroll, who have sadly passed away since the series ended. “It’s a smart, fun, and heartfelt way to bring the characters back together and pay tribute to those we’ve lost, which was very important to me,” Bomer explained.

Though the revival is not yet confirmed, Bomer remains hopeful. “These decisions are beyond my control,” he admitted. However, the idea of reuniting with former castmates Tim DeKay (Peter Burke) and Tiffani Thiessen (Elizabeth Burke) has him eagerly awaiting the possibility.

Reflecting on his time with the series, Bomer described it as one of the most fulfilling experiences of his career. “So much of that experience was about the incredible people I worked with,” he said. “We worked long hours, but it never felt like work. The set was a fun, collaborative space where we could truly develop and explore our characters.”

Matt Bomer recently reminisced about his late White Collar co-star, Willie Garson, who passed away in 2021. Bomer expressed that Garson had a remarkable talent for "brightening every day on set." Alongside honoring his friend's memory, Bomer is also celebrating his recent Emmy nomination for his role in Fellow Travelers. In this series, he portrays a State Department official struggling with his sexual identity amidst the challenges of the McCarthy era and the onset of the AIDS epidemic.

“When I received the nomination, I was incredibly thankful and happy,” Bomer reflected. “But more than that, I was grateful that a series like Fellow Travelers can exist in today’s world.”
