The series stars Duff, Christopher Lowell, Francia Raisa, Tom Ainsley, Tien Tran, Suraj Sharma as well as recurring stars, Kim Cattrall, Daniel Augustin, Ashley Reyes and Josh Peck. 'How I Met Your Father', which was first announced in April 2021, follows a future version of Sophie (Kim Cattrall) as she tells her son the story of how she met his dad.
The tale journeys all the way back to 2021 as Sophie (Hilary Duff) and her friends are figuring out many aspects of their lives, including how to find love amid the dating app era. The new show is a standalone sequel series to the former CBS hit 'How I Met Your Mother', which aired for 10 seasons between 2005 to 2014.

Late actor-comedian Bob Saget provided the voice of the narrator, an older version of Radnor's character Ted.
The series followed Ted Mosby, who tells his children the story of how he met their mother. In its nine-season run, 'HIMYM' earned multiple Emmy wins and Golden Globe recognition. While 'HIMYF' will be available for Indian viewers on January 19, it will stream on Hulu in the US on January 18.
