The Office is getting a Peacock spinoff about local newspapers

Newer shows like Abbott Elementary have proven that there’s still interest in mockumentary-style TV more than a decade after The Office came to an end, and NBC has plans to capitalize on the moment with a new series set in the same — apologies — universe Dunder Mifflin exists in.

Greg Daniels was responsible for adapting The Office for NBC, and the network announced today that he and Michael Koman are creating a new, untitled spinoff series for Peacock that will focus on “a dying historic Midwestern newspaper and the publisher trying to revive it with volunteer reporters.” In a statement about the news, head of NBCUniversal Entertainment Lisa Katz noted how The Office has continued to draw viewers to Peacock more than a decade since the show’s finale aired and said that the spinoff will introduce “a new cast of characters in a fresh setting ripe for comedic storytelling.”

Currently, Domhnall Gleeson and The White Lotus’ Sabrina Impacciatore are set to lead the show’s cast, and while it does not yet have a title or premiere date, production is scheduled to kick off this July.
