Chris Lilley hints that he may bring back Mr G from his comedy Summer Heights High for a new project.

Chris Lilley has hinted that he may bring back one of his most iconic characters, Mr G, for a new project.

The alter-ego was one of several characters played by Lilley in Summer Heights High, a comedy set in a fictional high school that saw him play a snobby schoolgirl, a boy with behavioural issues and flamboyant drama teacher Mr G.

Lilley has now posted two short clips without caption to his Instagram - the first of which showed Mr G's pink medicine ball bouncing around before landing on a chair.

The second shows what appears to be Mr G walking in a dance style before the chair with the pink ball is shown once again.

Summer Heights High aired for just one season in 2007 and although Lilley went on to film several similar shows, he has not acted since the 2019 series Lunatics.
