CNN —Over a decade after viewers said goodbye to beloved NBC series “The Office,” a new comedy set in the same universe as everyone’s favorite paper company Dunder Mifflin is coming to Peacock.
Daniels and Koman will also produce the series with original “Office” creators Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant.
Many cast members became household names following the widespread and early success of the series, which won five Emmys throughout its run.
Like its predecessor starring Gervais, the series followed a mockumentary-style format with cast members breaking the fourth wall as a crew followed staffers around an office, capturing tedious day-to-day tasks, office romances and at-times outlandish behavior.
It is not yet known if any previous cast members will make cameos in the Peacock series, which is set to begin production in July.
