Hollywood Reporter is reporting that Amy Poehler might be starring in the Office spinoff for NBC. I'd think she's be the perfect choice to lead the cast for the spinoff. Word is also that the show won't have the word Office in the title and will be just be considered a office comedy like The Office. Let's hope it's not some re-hashed show.
Here's what HR had to say:
Amy Poehler might be joining her "Saturday Night Live" pal Tina Fey as a primetime player for NBC.
Poehler is said to be in negotiations to star in NBC's spinoff of "The Office."
NBC and creator Greg Daniels have been mum on details about the project. The only actor cast in the project so far is comedian Aziz Ansari, but there's been speculation that the show might be built around a name actor, similar to how the original "Office" is anchored by Steve Carell.
