Reboot of ‘The Office’ In Talks As Writers Strike Agreement Reached

Sep 25 2023 Share

Now that the Writers Guild of America (WGA) has reached a tentative agreement with the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP), news of a reboot of fan favourite series ‘The Office’ has surfaced and it is driving lovers of the show wild.

Months of strikes calling for better pay and working conditions for writers and actors, Hollywood came to its knees with thousands of productions brought to a halt as a result. That meant that production on beloved shows hung by a thread. With the WGA and AMPTP revealing that a ‘tentative agreement’ had been reached over the weekend, films and TV series may no longer hang in the balance and that means The Office Reboot may now be in motion.

“We can say, with great pride, that this deal is exceptional – with meaningful gains and protections for writers in every sector of the membership,” the WGA wrote in a statement.

With a wave of productions and announcements slated for the next few months, the producer of Steve Carrell’s ‘The Office’ reboot Greg Daniels may jump right into it as more and more films and series regain traction.

What movie or series are you looking forward to this year?
