Will the new 'The Office' series be a reboot? Here's what we know so far
The Office’ was short-lived after the makers informed that the series would not be a reboot of the original one.
Daniels said that there were no plans on a possible new series based on The Office, and if anything is working on that front then he will be the first one to make the announcement.
In an interview with The Wrap, Greg Daniels had already made it clear that he would not like to remake the popular series on the same ground. It may be mentioned that rumors were floating that the makers planning the new series will be a reboot of the popular sitcom, which has been denied by them.
In 2005, Greg Daniels directed the iteration of The Office series.
He said, «I don’t like to think of anything as a reboot, you know what I mean? Because I feel like we ended that story beautifully. The characters had closure.
I would never want to redo that same show with a different cast, because I think we got the luckiest cast, the best cast ever, in TV, to do that show. So the notion of a reboot is not of interest. The notion of maybe something like the way 'The Mandalorian’ is a new show in the Star Wars universe, you know what I mean? Something like the notion of this documentary crew doing a documentary about a different subject.
That, I think, could be intriguing and creative.»
Earlier in an interview, Daniels had termed as speculative of a possible series based on the world of The Office.
Almost 20 years ago, NBC aired the original series named The Office. The series was a hit and viewers immediately started loving it.
