LeVar Burton Addresses Possible ‘Community’ Movie Cameo: “We May Need An Update”


After LeVar Burton sailed off with Donald Glover's Troy in Season 5 of 'Community', he teased the possibility of returning for a cameo in the movie.

When asked if he would reprise his self-referential role for the Community movie after sailing off with Glover’s Troy in Season 5 of the NBC sitcom, LeVar Burton played coy but ultimately agreed audiences deserve to see an update on his whereabouts. Glover starred as former high school jock Troy since the show premiered in 2009, before departing with the 2014 episode ‘Geothermal Escapism’, which saw him sailing around the world with Burton on the Childish Tycoon as stipulated in their late mutual friend Pierce’s ( Chevy Chase) will. Last month, Community: The Movie was announced as one of 19 projects that will benefit from $51.6 million in incentives from California’s film and TV tax credits program.
