‘White Collar’ season 6: Some assorted fun (and schedule talk) with Matt Bomer

So how does the new interview with Matt Bomer on “The Ellen DeGeneres Show” have anything to do with “White Collar“? It’s more about indirect mentions than anything else.

Basically, what Bomer says in this chat further verifies that the final six episodes are going to be filmed this summer, which you may have known already thanks to social media. Production officially starts early next month, and Matt has his trademark hair back that he needs in order to rock out as Neal Caffrey. He’s going to be shooting the “Magic Mike” sequel this fall, which leaves him a window of a few months to finish up the USA series.

For those wondering about a premiere date, that has not been announced just yet. All we can say for the time being is that you are likely to see the show on the air again either this fall, or possibly in the new year if they want to run six episodes straight through in January when there is lesser competition. either way, it is easy to celebrate the fact that we are going to get a chance to see the end of Neal’s story, especially after there was a span of a few weeks where it was not entirely clear that we were going to get an ending at all.

Also, congratulations are in order for Matt following his Critic’s Choice TV Award nomination for “The Normal Heart,” which received quite a bit of love from the organization.

What do you want to see on “White Collar” moving forward, and are you glad to see Matt getting to do so many awesome things this year? Share below, and also head over here if you want to book some more great TV updates via email courtesy of our CarterMatt Newsletter.
