Speaking of The Office reboot, Greg Daniels recently gave a clarification on whether the iconic show will mark its return or not. According to Collider, the showrunner said that there’s still no definitive “yes” or “no.” However, he completely doesn’t discard the idea. “Well, I think that it’s very speculative. The fact that it kind of blew up based on one line in a puck piece was kind of cool, I guess, in the sense that the fans still care a lot,” said Daniels adding, “But the thing I would say is, when there’s something to announce, I will definitely announce it.”

Apparently, Greg Daniels has been in talks with The Office’s original network, NBC for a potential reboot and if all goes well, it might be aired as an extension of the original series, exactly how The Mandalorian expands the Star Wars universe.
NBC’s mockumentary sitcom The Office also drew a slew of criticism over jokes that haven’t aged well and it would be interesting to see whether the reboot will fit the current standards or not. Also, there is no update if the original cast would return for the possible reboot.
Greg Daniels was also asked how social media and technology use might allow new storylines in a reboot. To this, Daniels quipped, “Yeah, it’s an interesting question. When you watch old movies it’s like a game to identify what wouldn’t work when everybody had a cell phone. You know what I mean?”
He added, “Like all the story moves of people like, ‘Oh, they just missed you. Oh, dang.’ Now maybe I’ll get on that boat and go to, you know, it’s just like, ‘Oh, how frustrating if you only had a cell phone.’ I mean, it’s an interesting question for sure.”
