Details are sketchy here folks and I usually don’t print rumors, but this was promoted by The Office‘s Facebook page, so, it’s a bit more official than tabloid fodder.
It appears that David Brent of the British version of the show as played by Ricky Gervais and Michael Scott of the American version as played by Steve Carell will be meeting face to face at Dunder-Mifflin some time this season.
Per TVLine.com, inside sources confirm that Gervais will be making an appearance in an upcoming episode of the U.S. version of the show.
How exciting is that?!
I for one can’t wait for this awesomeness in the making. But I won’t get my hopes up that Gervais will take over the role of office manager permanently. Or could he? Would he?
Ricky gervais taking over for steve carrell may be the only way to save The Office.
