AceShowbiz - Former "Pretty Little Liars" star Lucy Hale has hinted at a possible cameo appearance in the upcoming season of the reboot, "Pretty Little Liars: Summer School".
On April 9, HBO Max and the show's Instagram accounts announced the May 9 release date for season 2. Hale took to the comment section, writing, "Kinda making me want to go back to school?."
Fans immediately speculated whether this meant Aria Montgomery, Hale's character in the original series, might make an appearance. The reboot, "Original Sin", had mentioned Aria's name in season 1, leading to further excitement among viewers.
In an interview with MovieWeb in January, Hale had expressed openness to returning to the role, saying, "I don't know if I'd ever do a reboot, but who knows?"
Showrunner Robert Aguirre-Sacasa has teased that the second season will feature a "bigger, badder and bolder" premise. The reboot follows a new group of friends in the fictional town of Millwood, who are tormented by a mysterious "A" character.
The original "Pretty Little Liars" series ran from 2010 to 2017, following the lives of four friends as they investigated the disappearance of their friend and faced the threats of an anonymous harasser named A.
Hale also spoke about her bond with her former co-stars from the original series. She revealed that she stays in touch with all of them and has been thrilled to witness their personal growth and achievements. Notably, she praised Ashley Benson, who recently welcomed her first child, saying, "I'm just happy for her."
