Hello Wisconsin! The characters of That ‘70s Show are coming back to television for That ‘90s Show, a series that continues the story into the next generation. Here’s who we can look forward to seeing when the series premieres in January 2023.

Kurtwood Smith as Red

Red is a grandpa now, and we can’t wait to see whether this gruff grump softened or hardened with age. In addition to reprising the iconic role, Smith serves as executive producer on That ‘90s Show.

Debra Jo Rupp as Kitty

Smith has said that Rupp as the sweet but sassy Kitty is a big reason he returned to the show. Rupp, who also boasts an executive producer credit for the series, had previously said that she was all too happy to step back into the role.

Topher Grace as Eric

Grace will guest-star on the show, and was excited to work with the cast again, telling Entertainment Tonight, “They are all such amazing people who are so influential in my life and who I became.”

Laura Prepon as Donna

Prepon will also guest star in the series, and told Us Weekly the experience was “so fun.” “It’s all the same sets,” she said. “When I first went there, I cried.”

Ashton Kutcher as Kelso

For Kutcher, the show not only launched him to stardom, but into his marriage. He told Variety “We thought, ‘Listen, we’re only in the position that we’re in because of that show, so let’s just go back."

Mila Kunis as Jackie Burkhart

Kunis will guest star as Jackie, a character who wound up married to Kelso (played by her IRL husband) and she’s skeptical. “I called B.S.,” she told Variety. “I was like, ‘My character would be with Fez.’”

Wilmer Valderrama as “Fez”

Valderrama will join his cast mates reprising Fez (a jokey acronym for “foreign exchange student) for a guest appearance. He teased Instagram followers with a sneak peak back in May.

Tommy Chong as Leo

Chong wasn’t sure if he was going to be invited back to guest star in the series, but when he got the call he accepted, feeling as though no time had passed. “It could have been yesterday,” he told Variety.

While Danny Masterson, who was recently acquitted for multiple sexual assault charges, is notably missing, there’s a whole new cast of (mostly teen) characters in That ‘90s Show we look forward to meeting, including Eric and Donna’s daughter, Leia.
