Tim Allen says a potential “Home Improvement” reboot remains stuck because the actors who played his sons are not currently available to reprise their roles. In updates shared with multiple outlets, Allen points to “personality problems” and other personal issues involving the onscreen Taylor children as the main barrier to moving forward. The original ABC sitcom ran from 1991 to 1999, and the son roles were played by Zachery Ty Bryan, Jonathan Taylor Thomas, and Taran Noah Smith. Allen describes the situation as one where discussions about the project continue, but progress stalls because the actors are dealing with their own circumstances and concerns. One report notes that Bryan is serving a prison sentence, while other reports indicate Thomas and Smith are not interested in returning to acting. Overall, the accounts present Allen’s explanation for why a Taylor family reunion has not materialized more than 25 years after the show ended. None of the outlets report a concrete production start date, script status, or studio timeline tied to Allen’s comments.
