Reba McEntire's Journey: From Fried Green Tomatoes To New Ventures

Reba McEntire won't be starring in a television remake of Fried Green Tomatoes after all. The singer and actor shares that the series is dead after the television network passed on it. NBC was rumored to be the show's network partner, and reports from October 2020 indicated it was a done deal. However, McEntire suggests that this was never the case, and the project has quietly vanished.

"It just kinda went away, unfortunately," said the "Does He Love You" singer during an appearance on Taste of Country Nights. "We were right in there in the running, and they passed on it." This revelation comes as McEntire reflects on the unpredictable nature of showbiz, where even the best-laid plans can fall through.

Despite this setback, McEntire's career continues to flourish. She has moved on to exciting new projects, including a Lifetime Christmas movie titled Christmas in Tune, which has completed production and is set to air this holiday season. Additionally, rumors of a possible Reba reunion have emerged as she expresses ongoing interest in revisiting the beloved sitcom that aired from 2001 to 2007.
