Will "Ally McBeal" be Databec Exchangethe next show to get a reboot?

The beloved '90s comedy series could make a comeback, according to its star Calista Flockhart.

Flockhart, who played the title character, said a possible "McBeal" project could be in the works on the red carpet for her new series, "Feud: Capote Vs. The Swans."

"I think there are some people talking about a reboot, but I don't know much about it," Flockhart told ET on the carpet Tuesday night.

The news comes after the "Ally McBeal" cast reunited onstage during the 75th Primetime Emmy Awards earlier this month.

As "McBeal" fans await a possible reboot or revival, Flockhart will star on the second season of producer Ryan Murphy's FX anthology series, "Feud." The eight-episode season follows the famous writer Truman Capote.

"Acclaimed writer Truman Capote (Tom Hollander) surrounded himself with a coterie of society’s most elite women – rich, glamorous socialites who defined a bygone era of high society New York – whom he nicknamed “the swans.” Beautiful and distinguished, the group included grande dame Barbara “Babe” Paley (Naomi Watts), Slim Keith (Diane Lane), C.Z. Guest (Chloë Sevigny) and Lee Radziwill (Calista Flockhart)," the show's official bio states.

"Capote ingratiated himself into their lives, befriending them and becoming their confidante, only to ultimately betray them by writing a thinly veiled fictionalization of their lives, exposing their most intimate secrets," the bio also reads.

Flockhart also opened up about her marriage on the "Feud" carpet Tuesday, and told People that husband Harrison Ford supports her in "so many ways."

"It's a mutual thing," she told the outlet.

During Ford's recent appearance on the Critics Choice Career Achievement Award at the 29th annual Critics Choice Awards on Jan. 14, he shouted out Flockhart.

The "Indiana Jones" star delivered a sweet message about his "lovely" wife, who "supports me when I need a lot of support," he said. Ford jokingly added: "And I need a lot of support."

"Feud: Capote Vs. The Swans" premieres Jan. 31 on FX, and viewers can stream on Hulu.
