It features McElhenney, Glenn Howerton, Charlie Day, Kaitlin Olson and veteran actor Danny DeVito.

The show's 14th season ended in November 2019 and while writing has begun on the new season, it is unclear when production will resume due to the coronavirus pandemic.

McElhenney recently said that the upcoming season will tackle the pandemic, which has claimed the lives of over 350,000 people globally.

The 43-year-old creator had also assured fans that "we're going to keep doing it forever if people keep watching".
