Could Veronica Mars return to screens again as a limited series? Kristen Bell has just hinted it could happen.
The teen noir show left TV screens nearly 10 years ago and returned for a film in 2014, though Bell revealed that there is a strong desire for more.
"Rob [Thomas] and I definitely want to make more of Veronica Mars," the actress told TV Line at San Diego Comic-Con.
"There are a variety of variables, like my TV contract, his TV contract. What platforms will allow us to do something truncated, like six episodes or eight episodes that won't demand a full 22. So there are a variety of things that we have to consider.
"But we are definitely striving to do it again, and I think the idea that's bouncing around at the moment is some sort of miniseries that we can put on a platform that would have us.
"And obviously if the audience still wants it, because Rob and I definitely want to do it," she added.

As for possible storylines, Bell added: "[Rob] created that world, he knows it better than anyone. He has an infinite amount of scenarios in his head, its rife to be mined."
And she also acknowledged how grateful the Veronica Mars cast and crew were to the fans who helped fund the movie through Kickstarter.
"It's just we want to make sure that the audience wants it, because that's what fuels us, and this time around we're not going to ask the audience to pony up for anything," she said. "We are incredibly appreciative that that happened.
"But I think the most respectful thing to do this time is to say: 'guess what, all networks and internet platforms – we've proven our worth. Lets not ask them to pre-sell all their tickets. Let's just give them something they know they're hungry for'."
Bell has previously expressed hope for a Veronica Mars reboot, saying she's talked about the idea many times with Thomas.
