Mar 31, 2014 8:00 PM UTC What will happen after the titular meeting occurs on the March 31 series finale of _How I Met Your Mother_? Thanks to the show’s nonlinear timeline, the answers are clear for many of the fictional characters. And, as a decade-long gig ends and they clear up their schedules, the same is true for the actors who play the _Mother_ gang. Here’s where you’ll be able to catch them after the show goes off the air: **Josh Radnor (Ted):** The show’s star has the least obvious path ahead. Radnor has no specific future projects confirmed for release in the next year or so, but the actor — who has written and directed a few films already — has said that he’s interested in doing more work behind the camera. **Cobie Smulders (Robin):** The show’s main love interest is going for action, with at least two more appearances as Avengers franchise character Agent Maria Hill. One, _Captain America: The Winter Soldier,_ is out this week and the other, _Avengers: Age of Ultron_, is currently filming. **Neil Patrick Harris (Barney):** The ubiquitous triple threat is going strong. In movie theaters this year, he’ll play Desi in the film adaptation of hit novel _Gone Girl_, out in October, and also appear in Seth MacFarlane’s _A Million_ _Ways to Die in the West_, out in May. Meanwhile, on Broadway, it’s curtains up on his starring turn in _Hedwig and the Angry Inch_ (the show is in previews now and opens officially on April 22). **Alyson Hannigan (Lily):** Hannigan, a television veteran, recently [told TIME](http://time.com/35443/how-i-met-your-mother-alyson-hannigan/) that she hoped to have another go at a long-running series. Her first bet for that slot is _More Time with Family_, a CBS pilot executive-produced by Ben Affleck and Matt Damon. **Jason Segal (Marshall):** The comedy strongman has a full slate of movies coming up, including a starring role in this summer’s Cameron Diaz romp _Sex Tape_ and a more serious turn as the star of David Foster Wallace biopic _The End of the Tour._ He’s also [revealed plans](http://splitsider.com/2013/04/jason-segel-wrote-a-series-of-young-adult-novels-out-later-this-year/) for a series of YA novels; [the first](http://www.randomhouse.com/book/235393/nightmares-by-jason-segel-and-kirsten-miller) is due in September. **Cristin Milioti (The Mother):** The actress, recently seen in _The Wolf of Wall Street_, has a thriller (_The Occupants_) in the works and an NBC pilot for a rom-com called _A To Z_. **Lyndsy Fonseca and David Henrie (the kids):** She’s in _Moments of Clarity_, due later this year, and he’s in a bunch of movies coming up, including _Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2_. **Carter Bays and Craig Thomas (the show’s creators):** Will also work on the spin-off _How I Met Your Dad_. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/44078/how-i-met-your-mother-cast-next-projects/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/44078/how-i-met-your-mother-cast-next-projects/"},"headline":"How I Met Your Mother: What's Next for the Cast","datePublished":"2014-03-31T20:00:14.000Z","dateModified":"2026-02-21T07:03:24.244Z","description":"You won't need to look for the yellow umbrella to follow their careers","url":"https://time.com/44078/how-i-met-your-mother-cast-next-projects/","keywords":["Television","How I Met Your Mother","Neil Patrick Harris","TV","Finale"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt75d2b2399d72e936/6986882ed0b6f28c10303874/104587_fox_1259b.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Lily Rothman","jobTitle":"Rothman is managing editor at TIME.","url":"https://time.com/author/lily-rothman/"}],"articleSection":"Entertainment","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt75d2b2399d72e936/6986882ed0b6f28c10303874/104587_fox_1259b.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"HIMYM","caption":"HIMYM","creditText":"Ron P.
