Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT The Office's reboot confirmation prompts a surprisingly optimistic response from the show's co-creator, Stephen Merchant. Co-created by Ricky Gervais, the UK version of The Office first aired in 2001, with Greg Daniels' American version subsequently hitting NBC in 2005.
Following confirmation of Peacock's The Office reboot, Merchant now shares his thoughts regarding the new series during a recent interview with Deadline. While Merchant seemingly doesn't have any information on the show beyond what has been officially revealed, he expresses excitement about the project. Check out his optimistic comments below:
“They just make us sign bits of paperwork to say they can do it and I’m looking forward to it. I like the idea … that it’s within the universe of The Office, but not necessarily in the same office. I just hope they represent what office life must be like now. I guess the whole show will just be on Zoom and people only come in like twice a week.”
