Netflix is starting to tease its new show That ’90s Show which is a reboot of That ’70s Show. While many of the original cast members will appear alongside some new faces, there is one person that will not be featured in the series at all. Danny Masterson will not reprise his role as Steven Hyde because he is currently on trial.
That ’90s Show follows Leia Forman, the daughter of Eric and Donna, played by Topher Grace and Laura Prepon. Both are set to appear in the series along with Debra Jo Rupp (Kitty Forman), Kirkwood Smith (Red Forman), Ashton Kutcher (Michael Kelso), Mila Kunis (Jackie Burkhart), and Wilmer Valderrama (Fez).
