Peacock Expands 'The Office' Universe with New Cast Additions

The upcoming mockumentary series from Greg Daniels and Michael Koman adds four new actors and writers to its ensemble.

The new series, rumored to be titled 'The Paper,' is set in the same universe as 'The Office' but focuses on a struggling Midwestern newspaper.
Comedians Tim Key, Gbemisola Ikumelo, Alex Edelman, and Eric Rahill join the cast, with Ikumelo, Edelman, and Rahill also contributing as writers.
The show features Domhnall Gleeson and Sabrina Impacciatore as lead characters, alongside previously announced actors Melvin Gregg, Chelsea Frei, and Ramona Young.
Greg Daniels, known for developing the American version of 'The Office,' co-creates the series with Michael Koman, with input from original creators Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant.
The series is not a reboot but a new mockumentary exploring the challenges of reviving a historic newspaper with the help of volunteer reporters.
