New Version Of The Office Gets An Exciting Update, But Full-Blown Reunion Is Reportedly "Out Of The Question"

The Office, one of the most iconic and beloved American TV shows, is reportedly getting a follow-up series, and now a major piece of news about it has emerged. Deadline reports that Michael Koman, the co-creator of Nathan For You, is the “leading creative voice” in the writers room that Greg Daniels opened this year to explore ideas for a potential new series.

If the series moves ahead, Koman could be the co-creator. Importantly, nothing is official here. A potential new series would not be a reboot of The Office. Instead, it’s believed it could follow a similar mockumentary-style approach that documents the life and careers of different people.

Intriguingly, though, reports have suggested the new series would take place within the same universe as the original Office, which…

Pellegrini hints at further contract extensions

Manuel Pellegrini has suggested that more key player at Manchester City may sign contract extensions in the near future.

In recent weeks, Vincent Kompany, David Silva and Sergio Aguero have all signed new terms at the club as City look to instil long-term instability at the Etihad Stadium.

City begin their Premier League title defence at Newcastle United on Sunday, and in a press conference on Friday, Pellegrini hinted that other players may soon be tied to new deals.

They understand that, and maybe you…

International friendlies preview: Loew aims high

Despite securing qualification to Euro 2012 in style, Joachim Loew wants more from Germany ahead of Tuesday s friendly against Poland.

Germany thrashed Austria 6-2 at the Veltins Arena on Friday, with Mesut Oezil s hat-trick and goals from Lukas Podolski, Andre Schurrle and Mario Gotze booking a place in next year s European Championship finals in Poland and the Ukraine.

They are already being talked about as the most likely challengers to Spain s dominance at the tournament next June and July.

But Loew has been quick to point out that his team must overcome sterner challenges than the li…
