    Jesse Tyler Ferguson revealed that a Modern Family spinoff script has been written, but it doesn't have a network.

    On the Tony Awards Red Carpet Sunday night, Ferguson confirmed to Entertainment Tonight that a script exists. However, back in May, Ferguson appeared on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen, where he said that ABC had "decided against" a spinoff.

    "The script's out there and it's very good," Ferguson told ET. "So, you know, who knows? If someone wants to produce it, maybe."

    Rumors of the potential Modern Family spinoff have been circulating since the series ended in 2020. The spinoff would have been about Mitch (Ferguson) and Cam's (Eric Stonestreet) life in Missouri.

    All seasons of Modern Family are currently streaming on Hulu and Peacock.
