The Office is having a reunion of sorts. Former star Steve Carell & developer/executive producer Greg Daniels, are teaming up again for a workplace comedy at Netflix. The comedy takes on President Donald Trump’s Space Force initiative.
Co-created by Carell and Daniels and starring Carell, Space Force is centered around the people tasked with creating a sixth branch of the armed services…Space Force. The new comedy will not impact Carell’s starring role opposite Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon in Apple’s upcoming morning show drama series and he will do both.
A video accompanying the announcement of Space Force (you can watch it below), points to the inspiration for the series. It involves the June 18 announcement by Trump that he has directed the Department of Defense and the Pentagon to establish a Space Force as the sixth branch of the armed forces. In August, Vice President Mike Pence revealed that the goals of the new branch would be to defend satellites from attack and perform other space-related tasks. “It’s going to be something,” Trump said during his original speech.
With a situation like this, I’m sure hilarity will ensue.
