The actor and comedian, Variety reports, is reprising the character that helped catapult him to fame in the late 1990s.

The publication said Baron Cohen has been working on a stand-up tour in which Ali G will make an appearance.

A source close to Baron Cohen denied to Variety that a new movie was in the works and is abiding by strike rules.

“As a SAG and WGA member he is supporting the ongoing strike alongside his fellow writers and actors,” the source told Variety.
