Aug. 15, 2016 / PRZen / LOS ANGELES -- Everyone loves Angela Lansbury around the world. When news of the possibility of another episode of 'Murder She Wrote' was released, everyone became so excited. It's a dream come true for those who thought it was over.

Angela has reached out to all the old production members, including actors, supporting this undertaking. So many asked for the show to come back and now they might get their way. At least for one more day. An epic ending to a long lasting and loved show is in the air.

Angela says it all depends on getting everyone back together and supporting the production. It's that simple.

Rumor has it that the episode will cross the ocean and play out in America. Other rumors involve Ryan Dior playing a nice role in the film with his wonderful British accent alongside Angela Lansbury and all the actors from previous episodes that desire to step back into the limelight once again.

Other rumors lead us to Oklahoma in the USA with Author/Director Guy Lozier. Guy has been recently making waves in the film industry setting a record for independent film makers working with Stroud Arts and currently writing the novel 'Assassinating Custer' which is making such a stir in the US. Hearing his name mentioned surrounding the show gives us reason to believe he will play a role in the production in some form here in the US.

But one thing all the rumors lead back to, an epic adventure in the past bringing 'Murder She Wrote' back to life to shine once more on the screen.

Angela's dream of making one more episode can only enrich our lives once again, just as she has done so many times in the past.

Let's hope her dreams come true.

^EPIC!!!! I hope their able to do this!

My mother and I saw her in Blithe Spirit a year and a half ago and she was splendid, her comic timing still pitch perfect.

To be honest, Murder She Wrote wasn't exactly my all time favorite show but to see her act again would be a treat.

As a British-Irish-American actress, Angela Lansbury successfully has dabbled in the world of film, television, and live theatre in both the United States and the United Kingdom. You’ll know her face from Murder, She Wrote or recognize her voice from the original animated Beauty and the Beast – she played Mrs. Potts!

As of the 1990s, Lansbury has suffered from severe arthritis, and since that time has undergone some pretty intensive surgical operations— hip replacement surgery in 1994 and knee replacement surgery in 2005.

Now, at the age of 91, Lansbury doesn’t do a whole lot of acting anymore. While she was scheduled to return to live theatre for The Chalk Garden, it was announced a little time after that she would not, after all, be performing. Even so, despite her age and her struggle with arthritis, Lansbury will play a small part as the ‘Balloon Lady’ in Mary Poppins Returns, scheduled to hit theatres in December 2018.

I didn't know she was retired. Hope she comes back to do Murder She Wrote.

A new "MSW" TV film is my most-wanted "reboot"! I've wanted this to happen for a long time now. Angela Lansbury is a true gift.

Steve_uk · 08-25-2017, 09:56 AM

I wouldn't recommend it. If Agatha Christie's Curtain and David Suchet was anything to go by it would be a huge mistake.

DJM77 · 08-25-2017, 02:49 PM

Not to be disrespectful, but I had assumed that she had passed away years ago.

tlc38tlc38 · 11-03-2018, 05:02 PM

I’m still really hoping for this to happen. If they want to do it, they need to hurry. No disrespect but Angela isn’t getting any younger.

For the past several years I have been reading Murder she Wrote books written by Donald Bain. Maybe a script of the book could be used. Jessica Fletcher 21 years later. hmm.
