Smulders unsure about 'HIMYM' romances

The cast of How I Met Your Mother


Cobie Smulders has admitted that she has no idea if her How I Met Your Mother character Robin will have any more romances.

Speaking to New York Magazine, Smulders admitted that she is surprised that viewers think Robin and Barney (Neil Patrick Harris) are about to reunite.

"Everyone keeps saying that," she said. "What are we doing on the show that people are saying that? It's one of those relationships that always has potential. Right now I think they're really good friends and they went through a lot together, and that just made their friendship stronger right now. They could always get back together. I don't know if they will."

Smulders also admitted that she doesn't know whether Robin and Ted (Josh Radnor) will get back together.

"They don't tell me anything, honestly," she said. "Our show is narrated, so we have a lot of licence to be like, 'They told that story wrong'. I don't know if there's really a Ted-Robin future, but they surprised me with the Barney relationship, so anything's possible."

Smulders added that she believes Ted should find the mother soon, saying: "We're slated right now for the end of this [season] and two more, and I think we could finalize the show in that. I always saw the show coming to a close once we met the mother, but again it's all up for grabs at this point. I feel like in the next couple of years, Ted should be finding his lady. That seems right."
