Though they don’t make an appearance in Season One (we all know the story), “Fuller House” creator Jeff Franklin tells The Hollywood Reporter that there is a chance Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen (or even just one of them? that’s all they need, after all!) might be convinced to do the second season.
You’ve said the door is open for Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen to appear in a season two, but how confident do you feel that they’ll actually appear?
I’m hopeful.
Have you sent them the episodes or anything like that?
I haven’t. I think they’re going to watch them on Netflix like anyone else. Everybody’s going to see them for the first time completely finished on Netflix because that way we have one more person watching Netflix.
Meanwhile, the show’s executive producer Bob Boyett tells People that while Ashley wasn’t keen, Mary-Kate was.
“Ashley said, ‘I have not been in front of a camera since I was 17, and I don’t feel comfortable acting,’” Boyett stated. “Mary-Kate said, It would have to be me because Ash doesn’t want to do it. But the timing is so bad for us.”
Hopefully timing is better when the second season comes about.
