The rumor has been around since the end of last year and it seems that it will always be reality: There will be a new series of The Office directed by Greg Daniels. who years ago was responsible for adapting the original British series created by Ricky Gervais for the US version.
“The Office” in its North American version It is one of the favorite series of the audience, which has become attached to the Dunder Mifflin team, played by actors and actresses like Steve Carell, Rainn Wilson, Jenna Fisher, John Krasinski, among others.
Rumors have been circulating for months about a possible reboot of “The Office”
After nine seasons (although the series ended for fans when Steve Carell left the role of Michael Scott in season seven), In September 2012, “The Office” said goodbye. and we have been enjoying it ever since through various streaming platforms.
since last year There were rumors that a new version of the NBC series was coming and the project was not moving forward – at that time – due to the strike of actors and screenwriters in Hollywood, but portals like Puck News already had information about it.
Although Greg Daniels assured that he would not create a new version of the Scranton office
“Greg Daniels, for example, is ready to reboot The Office… There are a lot of scripts coming up for high-profile films. “The industry will return to normal.”reads Puck’s article at the time, which Greg Daniels himself denied months later.
“I feel like we wrapped up this story beautifully. The characters had closure. I would never want to remake the same show with a different cast because I think we had the luckiest castthe best cast on television to make this show.”Daniels said in a recent interview with TheWrap.
A new version of “The Office” is already in development and there are already names in the cast
Greg Daniels’ statements weren’t exactly misleading, because although The producer is already working on a production that will take place in the same Michael Scott universeIt is currently known that the new season of “The Office” will not be a reboot.
What is certain is that the series is already in development and already has the first names in the cast. At least this was confirmed by the portal Variety, which announced it Sabrina Impacciatore (The White Lotus) and Domhnall Gleeson (About Time) will star in this project, which is currently in development by Universal Television.
Very little is known about this new project from Greg Daniels
“They would play two roles in an ensemble cast, as in the original versions of the program.”Variety reported on the new version, details of which are scarce, but which we hope to hear more about from Universal Television in the coming months.
On the other hand, we remember that Greg Daniels had already announced this while speaking to TheWrap If I were to do something with The Office, I would do it the way Star Wars continued its franchise through series like “The Mandolorian”:
“It’s a new show in the Star Wars universe, you know what I mean?” he said. “I think it could be fascinating and creative. But I don’t even know what you would call it. I don’t know if it’s like a sister show or something. I don’t know what the term is. But it doesn’t seem like “reboot” is the right term for it.”he assured.
What will this new story look like? Will we have the same biting and incorrect humor that characterized the successful American version for years? Will there be a character that competes with Michael Scott? Lots of questions about this new series of “The Office,” which we already want to know more about.
