May 15 (UPI) — “Will & Grace” stars sing and dance in a first official trailer for the sitcom’s revival.

The musical-inspired promo sees Eric McCormack and Debra Messing promise a “bigger and brighter” show as their respective characters, Will Truman and Grace Adler. Megan Mullally and Sean Hayes also appear as Karen Walker and Jack McFarland.

“Did somebody say encore?! #WillAndGrace is back this fall on @NBC,” the series wrote on its official Twitter account. “We’re back and ready to knock your socks off, honey!”

“Will & Grace” initially had an eight-season run on NBC from 1998 to 2006, and will return for a ninth season in the fall. Series creators Max Mutchnick and David Kohan will serve as showrunners, with James Burrows as director and co-executive producer.

“We’re thrilled that one of the smartest, funniest and most defining comedies in NBC history is coming back,” NBC Entertainment chairman Robert Greenblatt said in January. “This groundbreaking series for everything from gay rights to social and political commentary — all disguised as a high-speed train of witty pop culture — is coming back where it belongs.”

“Will & Grace” focuses on the relationship between Will, a gay lawyer, and his best friend Grace, a straight interior designer. The show’s stars previously reunited in September for a 10-minute scene about the presidential election.
