It's Official: 'The Office' Will Get a Spinoff, Production to Start this Year

Share

Peacock has confirmed that a spinoff of the iconic series “The Office” is in the works.

More than a decade after the final episode of the comedy series aired on NBC, a new crew will be cast to continue where Steve Carell, Rainn Wilson, John Krasinski, Jenna Fischer, B.J. Novak and company left off.



Filming and production of the untitled spinoff are set to begin in July, according to Variety.

It said the official logline described the show this way: “The documentary crew that immortalized Dunder Mifflin’s Scranton branch is in search of a new subject when they discover a dying historic Midwestern newspaper and the publisher trying to revive it with volunteer reporters.”

This new project will operate under the helm of Greg Daniels, who adapted the original for NBC, and Michael Koman, co-creator of “Nathan for You.”

The series will star Irish actor Domhnall Gleeson from the 2013 romantic comedy “About Time” and Sabrina Impacciatore from the HBO series “The White Lotus,” according to Variety.

It’s unknown whether they will step into leadership positions akin to Carell’s Michael Scott or mirror the romantic storyline of Krasinski’s Jim and Fischer’s Pam.

While the spinoff will take place in the Midwest, the original was set in Scranton, Pennsylvania.

“The Office” aired from 2005 to its final episode in 2013.

News of the spinoff garnered excitement on social media.

However, the news was also met with some skepticism, much of it from journalists.

The spinoff also boasts involvement from the original U.K. version of “The Office,” on which the American series was based.

Creators Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant are executive producers, according to Variety.


A Note from Our Deputy Managing Editor:

 

“We don’t even know if an election will be held in 2024.” Those 12 words have been stuck in my head since I first read them. 

 

Former Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn recently made that comment to Floyd Brown, founder of The Western Journal. 

 

And if the leftists and the elites get their way, that’s exactly what will happen — no real election, no real choice for the Electoral College, and no real say for the American people. 

 

The Western Journal is fighting to keep that from happening, but we can’t do it alone.

 

We work tirelessly to expose the lying leftist media and the corrupt America-hating elites.

 

But Big Tech’s stranglehold is now so tight that without help from you, we will not be able to continue the fight. 

 

The 2024 election is literally the most important election for every living American. We have to unite and fight for our country, otherwise we will lose it. And if we lose the America we love in 2024, we’ll lose it for good. Can we count on you to help? 

 

With you we will be able to field journalists, do more investigative work, expose more corruption, and get desperately needed truth to millions of Americans. 

 

We can do this only with your help. Please don’t wait one minute. Donate right now.

 

Thank you for reading,

Josh Manning

Deputy Managing Editor
