‘The Office’: New Spin-Off Adds Domhnall Gleeson and Sabrina Impacciatore!!

The first stars are officially punching in to join Greg Daniels and Michael Koman‘s new The Office spinoff series. Domhnall Gleeson and Sabrina Impacciatore will join the universe of the beloved Emmy-winning workplace comedy as part of a larger ensemble cast similar to the original. Details about their respective roles are currently being kept under lock and key as the series remains in active development with Universal Television. Both are major names with some impressive television credits on their resumes thus far, adding to the excitement of returning to Daniels‘s world.

Originally unveiled as a potential reboot for the 2005 comedy, this new series will likely leave Dunder Mifflin behind, as Daniels has been emphatic that it won’t follow up with the original characters working under Steve Carell‘s Michael Scott. The project has been in development for a long time, with movement finally starting to thaw this spring with the addition of Koman to the team to co-develop a pilot and be credited as co-creator if the show is eventually ordered. Daniels has previously indicated he wants to tread new ground with the series, with one potential idea following the crew of a documentary as they track new subjects in a new office setting.

The addition of Gleeson and Impacciatore especially shows that things are speeding up and more casting announcements could come soon. Impacciatore brings a fresh comedy angle to the table, with her last role coming in 2022 as the hotel manager Valentina in Season 2 of HBO‘s megahit series The White Lotus. Her turn garnered an Emmy nomination and plenty of attention in Hollywood as she’s set to join the star-studded crime thriller Hand of Dante featuring Oscar Isaac, Gerard Butler, and Jason Momoa. Her next role, however, will be opposite Viola Davis in the thriller G20 which also rounded out its cast with some serious firepower earlier this year.
