White Collar: What Happened To Neal Caffrey In (& After) The Finale
With news that a White Collar revival is in the works, fans are revisiting the series. Here’s what happened to Neal Caffrey in the finale & beyond.
Bomer, who is also the executive producer on the show, will take on the role of Frank Jerry, who was described as “hard of body and softof head." AlthoughMid-Century Modernhas been ordered to series,no official announcement about the show’s release date has been made.

Work On White Collar Revival Continues Despite Bomer’s Mid-Century Modern Commitment
The Script For The White Collar Reboot Is Ready
Despite Bomer’s involvement inMid-Century Modern, work on theWhite Collarrevival hasn’t halted. While Bomer is an important part ofWhite Collar,there are other factors that go into creating a show, like writing a script, that don’t necessarily require his presence. Jeff Eastin,White Collar’s creator, and Bomer have been talking about the show’s revival for years, so it’s likely that Eastin has an idea of what the new series will be about.
The screenwriter’s tweet also confirmed that the script for the show was ready and would be sent to the studio the following day.
Recently,Eastin took to X to offer an update on theWhite Collarrevival.In the tweet, Eastin wished Bomer, who had an Emmy nomination for Lead Actor in a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie for his role in Fellow Travelers, luck. The screenwriter’s tweet also confirmed that the script for the show was ready and would be sent to the studio the following day. So while Bomer focuses on filmingMid-CenturyModern, Eastin can finish writing the script for theWhite Collarrevival.
When The White Collar Revival May Be Released
The White Collar Will Likely Be Released In 2025
While Bomer might not be involved in every aspect of theWhite Collarrevival’s production,his role as Neal is still the backbone of the show. SinceMid-Century Modernwill likely take precedence for Bomer, the creators ofWhite Collarwill have to wait for the actor to be free in order for them to start filming. Given thatMid-Century Modernwas ordered to series, production has probably already begun.Mid-Century Modernwill be released on Hulu, so it’s likely to only have 10 episodes and will air in 2025.
If pre-production and post-production are completed early, then theWhite Collarrevival will also be eyeing a 2025 release.
The production and release of the newWhite Collarseason is dependent on Bomer’s schedule, so filming will likely begin after Bomer is done working onMid-Century Modern. If pre-production and post-production are completed early, then theWhite Collarrevival will also be eyeing a 2025 release. It’s also likely that theWhite Collarrevival might be released in the latter half of 2025. Unfortunately, fans of the show will have to wait a bit longer forNeal and Peter’s reunioninWhite Collar.
