Curb Your Enthusiasm season 10 is slowly completing its production. The comedy series starring creator Larry David isn't in a hurry to return on the air though, but HBO is extending every patience and adjustments needed for the show just to have it back.
In December 2017, HBO renewed Curb Your Enthusiasm season 10 following the strong ratings for season 9. Nearly a year later, Entertainment Weekly confirmed that the show had started production in Hollywood.
Expected to return are David and the show's main cast, such as Jeff Garlin, Susie Essman, J.B. Smoove, and Cheryl Hines. Curb Your Enthusiasm season 10 executive producer Jeff Schaffer also confirmed that David's character would not return as a ghost despite seemingly making it appear that he was killed in season 9.
"Here's one thing I can tell you that did not happen," Schaffer said. "Larry wasn't killed. He does not come back like in the movie Ghost and make sweet love to Cheryl at a Brentwood Color Me Mine."
Also primed to return on Curb Your Enthusiasm season 10 is Saverio Guerra who will reprise his role as Mocha Joe. Long-time fans of this HBO comedy may recall the character from season 7, who had a shop on the NBC lot. It's unclear, however, what Mocha Joe's new storyline would be for Curb Your Enthusiasm season 10, per Deadline.
But a new face will also be introduced in Curb Your Enthusiasm season 10. According to Variety, Wilco frontman Jeff Tweedy has agreed to play a secret role, and while he's not an actor by profession, Tweedy may have landed the part because he is good friends with Garlin.
Meanwhile, HBO has no confirmed release date or teaser for Curb Your Enthusiasm season 10 as of press time. The network, however, stated that the new season should be ready sometime in 2020 alongside a new season of Insecure and the debut of its new comedy series Run.
Curb Your Enthusiasm debuted on HBO in 2000 with David playing a fictionalized version of himself. In 2011 or eight seasons later, David and the cast and crew of the comedy series went on a hiatus with no clear cancellation announcement from HBO.
The show finally returned for season 9 more than three years later. Despite a long absence, Curb Your Enthusiasm still managed to hit its ratings high as if it never left the air.
