Who is in the How I Met Your Father cast?

How I Met Your Father follows Sophie played by Hilary Duff, who is determined to find her one true love in New York.

Speaking to Variety about taking on the role, Duff said,

"As a huge fan of How I Met Your Mother I'm honoured and even a little nervous that [the creators of the original series] Carter Bays and Craig Thomas [who are also exec-producing] would trust me with the sequel of their baby... Just fangirling over here getting to join the Hulu Originals and 20th families. I realise these are big shoes to fill and I'm excited to slip my 6 ½s in there."
