Hilary Duff to star in ‘How I Met Your Father’ sitcom sequel

Hilary Duff is about to become legen … wait for it … dary.

The former teen idol and “Younger” star has gotten the unlikely role in a gender-swapped sequel to “How I Met Your Mother” on Hulu. Called “How I Met Your Father,” the show will follow Sophie (Duff, 33) reminiscing to her son about how she met his father and recounting her friend group’s dating antics back in 2021, (as told from a vantage point in the future).
