Heidi Klum is returning to “Project Runway” after exiting the fashion competition series in 2018.

The news comes after the October announcement that the series had been renewed for a 21st season while moving to Disney’s Freeform after most recently airing on Bravo. Season 21 will debut later this year and run for 10 episodes, which will stream on Disney+ and Hulu after their Freeform airings.

More from Variety

Klum previously hosted “Project Runway” for 16 seasons, beginning with the series’ 2004 debut on Bravo. She remained with the show when it moved to Lifetime in 2009, where it aired for 11 more seasons, then departed alongside Tim Gunn, who mentored designers on the show, when it moved back to Bravo for Season 17. Karlie Kloss and Christian Siriano stepped in as “Project Runway” host and mentor, respectively, while Klum and Gunn created a new fashion competition series called “Making the Cut” for Amazon Prime Video. “Making the Cut” debuted in 2020 and ran for three seasons.
