He’s back and ready to flirt with everyone in Point Place, Wisconsin again. Recently, It’s a 70’s show star Wilmer Valderrama took to Twitter to show fans that he is hard at work returning to his role as Fez’s favorite foreign exchange student, a role he will play in the upcoming Netflix spin-off series. It’s a 90’s show.
In a tweet, the actor shared a photo of the front page of his script with These 90s Show the logo is striking in large block letters. In the upper right corner, Valderrama’s name can be seen just above his character’s name. In the caption, the actor wrote, “Who could it concern… Now if only I could remember the accent,” adding an uncertain and winking emoji at the end. Known as a fun and flirtatious exchange student, Fez’s accent was as much of an enigma as he was, never lending himself to any particular country. Fez’s home country became a running joke throughout the series, as every time he mentioned her by name, something abruptly interrupted him, leaving viewers constantly guessing.
