John Cleese, who played Basil Fawlty, will be returning to write and star alongside his daughter Camilla Cleese.
The classic show ran for two series on BBC Two in 1975 and 1979, following the lives of Torquay hotelier Basil and his wife Sybil as they tried to keep their business and marriage afloat.
The new series will explore how the misanthropic Basil navigates the modern world.
Castle Rock Entertainment announced on Tuesday it had closed a deal with Cleese to bring back the television series, but it's not yet clear which channel or streaming service it would appear on.
The revival will also see Basil and his daughter, who he has just discovered is his, team up to run a boutique hotel.
All of this revivification is getting out of hand.

Can Cleese still do his funny walk or has arthritis set in? Not holding my breath about yet another dead horse being flogged.

Yeah. I'm not optimistic about this.
I have always depended on the kindness of Strangers - and the bastards let me down!

Don't know how I feel about this. Fawlty Towers is a classic, only 12? episodes made.
