Larry David has revealed that Curb Your Enthusiasm will return for a 12th season at some point in the near future.

The comedy has been on the air since 2000 but with no regular pattern to its seasons, with David only writing new installments when he feels sufficiently inspired to do so.

The most recent season aired late last year with no word on another season, but the comedian confirmed it will be back in a special screening event on Sunday night.

Journalist Rich Eisen, who hosted the event, wrote on Twitter: "So, I was honored to emcee an [Emmys] panel for 'Curb Your Enthusiasm' tonight here in LA with most of the cast and asked Larry David the ultimate question: Will there be another season of Curb? He said yes."

HBO has yet to officially announce the renewal, with no timeline yet announced for filming or broadcast.
