Bradley Whitford said that he could see a revival of The West Wing as a 'limited series of some kind.'

The 66-year-old actor, speaking with Variety as he received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame Wednesday, was asked about the prospects of a revival of the political series.

The show's creator Aaron Sorkin told the outlet in 2024 that he was creatively charged after a visit to the White House.

Sorkin said at the time, 'I just got a couple of ideas for episodes just walking around the White House. Like, "Why didn’t we ever do this? Why didn’t we ever do that?"'

Whitford said he would work on persuading Sorkin to further explore the concept of a revival, adding, 'I don't know anything anybody else knows.'

The Daily Mail has reached out to representatives for Whitford for further comment on the story.

The three-time Emmy winner had been joined by a number of costars on the series at the event, including Martin Sheen, Dulé Hill, Mary McCormack and Josh Malina.

Whitford played Josh Lyman on 155 episodes of the series from 1999–2006, winning the Emmy for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series in 2001. 

He said it meant 'a lot to have' the support of his colleagues on the milestone day.

Hill, who played Charlie Young on the series, told the outlet he believed many cast members would come back if Sorkin ventured in that direction.

'I always say that's a question for Aaron Sorkin,' Hill said. 'If he writes it, then I will come. I think if he writes it, then we all will be there.'

Hill said a revival of the political series, which captured 27 Emmy Awards during its run, could put things in perspective amid the contemporary political landscape.

'Sometimes I wonder though where things are in the world,' he said. 'Things are so outlandish, I don't know how you dramatize any of that.

'With him writing, it would be a lovely thing to hopefully steer the collective consciousness of our society back toward humanity and connectivity and understanding.'

Sorkin in 2024 said that Sheen set the bar high in his portrayal of President Josiah Bartlet.

'I suspect that a new president would have a hard time living up to people's memories of Martin,' said Sorkin. 'But maybe enough time has gone by and it's a whole new generation.

'A generation which, by the way, thanks to streaming, thinks we're making the show today.'

He said he found the White House made for 'a great workplace against which to set,' adding that the changes in politics in the decades since the show went off the air could be difficult to replicate.

'We couldn't possibly come up with stories in the room that are crazier than the actual stories that we see,' Sorkin said. 'Because part of it is being idealistic, it does need to feel like it's taking place in the world that we live in for it to work.'
