Speculation about ‘How I Met Your Father’ has already begun and fingers are pointing at Barney Stinson

But it’s impossible. Can we at least have a surprise cameo from ‘How I Met Your Mother’ in the series starring Hilary Duff?

That How I Met Your Father has the green light on Hulu was one of the star news of the television scene last week and, like its predecessor, it was the subject of all kinds of speculation during -wait for it- eight seasons, the ‘spin-off ‘from How I Met Your Mother is already giving rise to some theories.

After a long time in development, it’s official: Hilary Duff will pick up the baton from Ted Mosby and tell her son how she met his father during at least a 10-episode first season that has already been officially commissioned on Hulu. Thus, the project has managed to come to fruition despite the difficulties, while the first attempt for a similar series, the one that was to star Greta Gerwig in 2014, finally could not go ahead.

Little to say about the plot of How I Met Your Father. As you may have already imagined, in the story of Sophie (Duff) making her son we are transported to the protagonist’s youth -2021, our present-, and we meet her closest group of friends, in the full stage of self-discovery to know what they want in life, to fall in love again and again among the infinite options that dating applications allow them. It is so defined by its official description.

While in the original series portrayed by Josh Radnor and Cobie Smulders it took a lot of seasons to discover who the mother of Ted Mosby’s children was, the identity of the father of Sophie’s child will also be the main mystery of the Hulu series. Whether it will take eight years to discover it remains to be seen, but some followers of the original who are already excited about the ‘spin-off’ already developed the first theory: It is Barney Stinson n, who we know became a father in the last episode of How I Met Your Mother and He does not get to reveal himself to whom.

Error. From TVLine they have quickly denied the theory, remembering that the character played by Neil Patrick Harris had a daughter, Ellie, not a son. In addition, both fictions would not fit temporarily either if we consider that Sophie has not yet met the father of her child in 2021.

However, although denied by its very nature, it is still curious that a first theory of How I Met Your Father has directly sought the connection with its predecessor. At the end of the day, it makes it clear that there is a certain nostalgia, despite the fact that the final season and final outcome of the ‘sitcom’ were so criticized by fans.
Behind the cameras of this new fiction are Isaac Aptaker and Elizabeth Berger, both producers of This Is Us and With Love, Victor, while the creators of the original, Carter Bays and Craig Thomas, creators continue on the project as executive producers. At least a surprise cameo will have to prepare us!
