The Paper Is Coming This September: See First Photo (Featuring a Familiar Face)

More Office-like shenanigans are on the way.

By Philiana Ng

It's officialThe Paper, the new mockumentary series set in The Office universe, will premiere exclusively on Peacock this September. 

Created by Greg Daniels (The Office) and Michael Koman (Nathan for You), The Paper brings the action from Scranton to Toledo as the same documentary crew that followed the beloved employees of Dunder Mifflin search for a new subject to focus on. They land on the historic but struggling Midwestern newspaper, The Truth Teller, and the eager publisher trying to revive it. 

In the first photo released by Peacock of the anticipated series, you get an early glimpse at the world of The Paper. Series star Domhnall Gleeson is seen standing on one of the desks in the newsroom as he rallies the crew with a smile on his face, as the employees look on.

If one of those employees looks familiar, your eyes are not fooling you. That’s The Office alum Oscar Nuñez, who played accountant Oscar Martinez in the Scranton branch of Dunder Mifflin, sitting in the background behind a computer. What’s he doing in Toledo? 

Sabrina Impacciatore, Chelsea Frei, Melvin Gregg, Gbemisola Ikumelo, Alex Edelman, Ramona Young, and Tim Key round out the main ensemble
