Mrs. Garret and the girls are on their way back to TV because "The Facts of Life" is being rebooted!
Leonardo DiCaprio's production company, Appian Way, is said to be in negotiations with Sony TV to bring back the popular 80's sitcom, according to Deadline.
Jessica Biel is also reportedly attached as a producer, and a writer is currently being sought out for the project.
"The Facts of Life" ran from 1979-1988 making it one of the longest running sitcoms of its time. Of course, the show centered around Charlotte Rae, who played Garrett, a housemother at an all girls school, and four young females played by Nancy McKeon, Kim Fields, Mindy Cohn and Lisa Whelchel. It's currently unclear if anyone from the original cast is involved.
The show also featured some big names who went on to take over Hollywood, including George Clooney and Molly Ringwald.
