Calling all 90s kids, if you ever wondered how Cory and Topanga from 'Boy Meets World' ended up well you're about to find out. The actors behind the beloved couple, Ben Savage and Danielle Fishel, have officially signed up to reprise their roles in the Disney Chanel pilot 'Girl Meets World,' TV Line reported on Monday.
The new potential sequel will pick up over a decade after 'Boy Meets World' ended and will find Cory and Topanga happily married while raising their 13-year-old daughter Riley, according to TV Line. The show will be told from the point of view of Riley, who has yet to be cast.
A Disney Channel rep confirmed the news to E! News, "We can confirm that Ben Savage and Danielle Fishel will reprise their hugely popular roles of Cory Matthews and Topanga Lawrence, this time as a happily married couple and parents to 13-year-old Riley, from whose point of view the story is told. The pilot is still in the very early stages of development with creator and executive producer Michael Jacobs, Emmy Award-winning creator/producer behind 'Boy Meets World,' 'My Two Dads' and 'Charles In Charge,' among others. A nationwide casting search is underway for the starring role of Riley Matthews."
According to E! News, Fishel thanked her fans on her Tumblr page, "First of all, let me say that you, the fans of Boy Meets World, have been awesome. That word is often used incorrectly by people, including myself, on a daily basis but you have truly been awe inspiring. You, yes, even YOU, are the reason that Girl Meets World WILL BE MADE."
Fishel said that she was unsure whether other 'Boy Meets World' cast members will be joining the new series. "I promise with the entirety of my heart that we will make GMW with the same honesty, innocence, and intelligence that you learned to expect from BMW," she added.
