Would Will Ferrell change his temp status as an incompetent Dunder-Mifflin branch manager on The Office to a full-time employee? If you ask Ferrell, his answer might be a “definite maybe!”
Ferrell is set to make a four-episode stint on the NBC hit comedy starting April 14 but there is a good chance he may stay longer!
When NY Daily News asked Ferrell if there’s a chance he may replace Steve Carell permanently once Carell leaves the show later this season, Hollywood’s recently-named most overpaid actor said, “That’s a very distinct possibility.”
Ferrell then told US magazine, “It’s looking good!”
Who knows if Ferrell is serious or joking, but if anyone can save the show after Carell leaves, I have no doubt it would be him. What do you think of this actor switcharoo? Will you tune in?
And, in case you missed the NBC promo spot, below is a video of Ferrell’s first look as the new big cheese in Scranton:
