Get ready to meet the new batch of teens inhabiting Point Place.

Netflix has announced the young cast that will headline the upcoming spinoff to “That ‘70s Show,” reported Deadline.

Titled “That ‘90s Show,” the multicam sitcom is set in 1995 and centers around Leia Forman, the daughter of Eric Forman (Topher Grace) and Donna Pinciotti (Laura Prepon) from the original series. Leia will be played by Callie Haverda, who returns to Point Place, Wisconsin to visit her grandparents, Red and Kitty Forman.

Original stars Kurtwood Smith and Debra Jo Rupp will reprise their roles as Red and Kitty and also executive produce alongside the show’s original creators Gregg Mettler, Bonnie Turner, and Terry Turner, and their daughter Lindsay Turner.

Leia will be running around with a new set of teenage pals including: Ashley Aufderheide as Gwen, Mace Coronel as Jay, Maxwell Acee Donovan as Nate, Reyn Doi as Ozzie, and Sam Morelos as Nikki.

According to Deadline, original cast members Grace, Prepon, Mila Kunis (Jackie), and Ashton Kutcher (Kelso) are “in negotiations” to recur on the 10-episode spinoff.

“That ‘70s Show” premiered on Fox in 1998. It ran for eight seasons through 2006 with 200 episodes and focused on a group of six teenagers living in the fictional town in Wisconsin from 1976 through 1979.

Other cast members included Wilmer Valderrama, Danny Masterson, and the late Tanya Roberts.

In 2002, Fox aired a series entitled “That ‘80s Show.” The short-lived show was not a direct spinoff from “That ‘70s Show” as it centered around a totally different set of unrelated characters in another decade. The sitcom lasted 13 episodes before being canceled.

Netflix has yet to disclose a premiere date for “That ‘90s Show.”
