Wet Hot American Summer's Camp Firewood crew had its 10-years-later reunion 25 years ago, in 1991. And soon, we'll find out what happened there.

That's right: Netflix is finally making Wet Hot American Summer -- Ten Years Later, a sequel teased at the end of the 2001 cult comedy. This marks Netflix's second summer outing with the franchise after 2015's Wet Hot American Summer: First Day of Camp -- a sequel miniseries that was technically a prequel. (WHAS took place on the last day of camp in 1981; First Day of Camp takes place on... well, you know.)

The eight-part series will be written and produced by creators Michael Showalter and David Wain, with Peter Principato, Jonathan Stern and Howard Bernstein also along to produce.

Ten Years Later will premiere on Netflix in 2017.
