The Liars Are Back? The Pretty Little Liars Cast: Where Are They Now In 2025 And The One Major Condition For A Revival

Rosewood may be quiet, but the cast of Pretty Little Liars is busier than ever in 2025. The iconic Freeform series, which ran from 2010 to 2017, launched its core cast into superstardom, but their careers have taken wildly different paths—from starring in major new Prime Video thrillers to launching multi-million dollar business empires and successful podcasts. With the recent cancellation of the spin-off, Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin (subtitled Summer School for its second season), all eyes are turning back to the original five Liars and the persistent rumors of a film revival, which the cast is reportedly open to, but with one major condition.

This 2025 update dives deep into the lives and latest projects of the original cast members, revealing who is stepping back into the spotlight, who is dominating the business world, and the specific terms that could bring Aria, Hanna, Emily, and Spencer back together on screen for one final mystery.

The Core Liars: 2025's Latest Projects and Career Shifts

The "A" game may be over, but the actresses who brought Aria Montgomery, Hanna Marin, Emily Fields, and Spencer Hastings to life have continued to dominate film, television, and entrepreneurship. Their post-PLL careers have shown a clear intention to move beyond their teen drama roots.

Parrish also co-hosted the official Pretty Little Liars rewatch podcast, which began in April 2024.
• Other Roles: Pieterse and Parrish both continue to work in film, often in holiday or genre movies, but their podcast work is their most consistent 2025 project.

The Major Condition for a Pretty Little Liars Revival Film

The biggest news for the PLL fandom in 2025 is the strong, mutual interest from the original cast and series creator I. Marlene King in a potential film revival. However, according to recent interviews, there is a clear, non-negotiable condition that must be met for the project to move forward.

The Condition: The entire core cast must return.

Shay Mitchell, in particular, has been vocal about this stipulation, stating that she would only agree to a reunion if "all her girlies are a part of it." This means that a film would need to successfully coordinate the schedules of Lucy Hale, Ashley Benson, Troian Bellisario, Shay Mitchell, and Sasha Pieterse. Given the main actresses' busy 2025 schedules with projects like On Call and *White Mars*, this logistical challenge is the single biggest hurdle to seeing the Liars back in Rosewood.

The cast's enthusiasm for a feature film format, as opposed to another television series, suggests a preference for a final, high-stakes story that provides definitive closure for the original mysteries and character arcs of Aria, Hanna, Emily, and Spencer.

The Supporting Cast: Where Are Rosewood's Men and Parents Now?

The extended ensemble cast, including the Liars' love interests and parents, have also been busy with new and exciting projects, further complicating any potential reunion but demonstrating the wide reach of the original show.

The Love Interests (Ezra, Toby, Caleb, Noel)

• Ian Harding (Ezra Fitz): Harding has become a Hallmark Channel staple. In 2024, he starred in the holiday film Holidazed, and in 2025, he is set to star in the new Hallmark+ drama series Ripple, which began filming in late 2024.
• Keegan Allen (Toby Cavanaugh): Allen has focused heavily on his creative pursuits outside of acting, including his work as a photographer and author. He continues to promote his photography book, *life.love.beauty*, and shares his photo journal projects with fans.
• Tyler Blackburn (Caleb Rivers): Blackburn has continued his career in television, most recently appearing in the sci-fi series Roswell, New Mexico.
• Brant Daugherty (Noel Kahn): Daugherty is highly active in the holiday movie circuit, starring in the 2024 Hallmark film Trivia at St. Nick's, in addition to his 2023 movie Joyeux Noel, where he also served as a writer.

The Parents and Key Allies (Ashley, Ella, Veronica, Mona)

The parental figures and key supporting players of Rosewood, who often found themselves caught up in the "A" drama, are still prominent figures in Hollywood and the convention circuit. This group of actors collectively represents a significant portion of the 15+ entities and topical authority for the franchise:

• Laura Leighton (Ashley Marin): The Melrose Place alum has been co-hosting the podcast Still the Place with former co-stars. There is also buzz about a potential new project that could reunite the original Melrose Place cast.
• Holly Marie Combs (Ella Montgomery): The Charmed star is a frequent guest at comic conventions in 2025, such as the Missouri Comic Con. She is also actively promoting the reboot of her House of Halliwell podcast.
• Chad Lowe (Byron Montgomery): While he continues to act, Lowe is a respected television director, having directed several episodes of Pretty Little Liars, and has been involved in executive producing projects like his brother Rob Lowe's recent work.
• Bianca Lawson (Maya St. Germain): Lawson continues to work in television, notably appearing in the drama series Queen Sugar.
• Andrea Parker (Jessica DiLaurentis/Mary Drake): Parker has been active on the convention circuit and in various TV guest roles, maintaining her presence with the fandom.

From the success of Shay Mitchell's BÉIS to Troian Bellisario's new critically-acclaimed drama On Call, the Pretty Little Liars cast has firmly established itself outside the halls of Rosewood High. While the spin-offs have ended, the door remains open for a film revival, provided the "girlies" can all agree to one final, dramatic return to the A-game.
