For the revival, the show will follow Carly (Miranda Cosgrove) as she navigates life in her 20s alongside her friends and loved ones while starting her famed web show back up.
“This is still ‘iCarly,’ but it’s all grown-up now,” Cosgrove says in the preview.
Most of the original cast is back, except for Jennette McCurdy, who played Carly’s best friend, Sam Puckett.

Cosgrove told Entertainment Weekly that McCurdy’s character would be addressed in the upcoming storylines.
“We touch a lot on the whole relationship with Sam and where Sam’s at in the pilot episode,” Cosgrove said. “And then we mention her a little bit throughout the season, so we’ll definitely explain that on the show.”
Newcomers Laci Mosley and Jaidyn Triplett are shown in the trailer.
