'The Office' special reunion unlikely to happen anytime soon

"The Office" reunion special is unlikely to happen anytime soon, said Greg Daniels, the creator of the US version of the show.

Rumours have been swirling that the show starring Steve Carell would be revived.

During an interview with The Hollywood Reporter's TV's TOP 5 podcast, Daniels said "I loved doing The Office more than anything. And if we were going to revisit it, I would want to do it".

"I think people were assuming that an Office reboot would [involve] … getting the entire cast back together and just continuing where we left off. We’re probably not going to get every single character back, they’re all doing all these cool things.”

Alluding to the successes of the show’s cast, he said: “I don’t think people’s expectations of getting back in the saddle and doing more episodes of the same show was going to be realistic.”
