NBC is considering reviving the beloved comedy The Office, according to multiple media outlets.
Unfortunately, Steve Carell’s Michael Scott will not return for the series, but the revival will still take place at the Scranton, Pennsylvania, office of Dunder Mifflin Paper Company. According to TVLine, a search for a new boss is underway. The series would premiere some time in 2018, according to the report.
Rumors of The Office getting a reboot have been circulating since the summer, but NBC previously said those rumors were false, though network president Bob Greenblatt told Deadline that if “The Office” creator Greg Daniels wanted to do a revival, then he would be up to it.
The Office ran for nine seasons and starred Carell, John Krasinski, Jenna Fischer, Rainn Wilson and Mindy Kaling, among others, and was based off the British comedy from Ricky Gervais.
