Could a Van and Cheyenne reunion be in the cards? Reba‘s JoAnna Garcia Swisher sure hopes so.

Swisher recently opened up to Us Weekly about the possibility of sharing the screen with Steve Howey, who played her love interest in the Reba McEntire-led sitcom, again. “I would jump at the chance to work with Steve again,” Swisher said. “We have talked about it.”

They have yet to decide which project they’ll work together on, though Swisher is totally on board for her former costar to join the world of Sweet Magnolias, her romantic drama series on Netflix. “Yes [to a Sweet Magnolias cameo for Howey],” the star said. “Yes to all of the things.”

Even though she’s “1,000 percent” willing to work with Howey again, it’s about finding the right project. The actress isn’t sure if they’ll reprise their Reba roles, or if it’ll be something totally new. “I don’t know if it’ll be Van and Cheyenne, but I can definitely say that I will text him often,” Swisher confirmed. “I’ll be like, ‘Do you want to do a cowboy romance or something like that? I think we should make that happen.’”

Either way, Swisher is “manifesting” it. “I have so much love for him and we have obviously just this really special and unique chemistry that is just rare,” she continued. “He’s so wildly talented and he made me look good for so many years. Just to be his partner in crime on [Reba] and he was just so inherently brilliant and funny.”

Even if her potential project with Howey is a ways off, Swisher is ready to return to the sitcom world with McEntire’s Happy’s Place, which Howey has already made a guest appearance on. “This is my family,” she said. “We are all so very close, but getting the opportunity to slide back into a sitcom stage with all of them would be so exciting. I would not be surprised if that was in the very near future.”
