Fox News
A spinoff of "The Office" is coming, leaving fans wondering if they will see favorite characters, like Michael Scott and Jim Halpert, return to the small screen. Actors provided answers at the "IF" premiere.
The verdict? Ashlyn Messier is a writer for Fox News Digital.
"I will be watching, but I will not be showing up. It’s just a new thing and there’s really no reason for my character [Michael Scott] to show up in something like that," Carell told The Hollywood Reporter on Monday. "But I’m excited about it, it sounds like a great conceit. I love the idea — I guess it’s set in a failing newspaper company, and I worked with Domhnall Gleeson, who is one of the leads; I did [2022 series] ‘The Patient’ with him, and he’s an excellent actor and a super nice guy, so I think it’ll be great."
