Peacock Orders New Series from The Office Universe; Hulu's UnPrisoned Is Back July 17

A new comedy from NBC's The Office adapter Greg Daniels and Nathan for You co-creator Michael Koman has been picked up to series at Peacock. The Untitled Daniels/Koman project is a new mockumentary series set in the same universe as NBC's Emmy Award-winning hit series The Office. Domhnall Gleeson (About Time, Ex-Machina) and Sabrina Impacciatore (The White Lotus) will lead an ensemble cast when the series begins production in July. The documentary crew that immortalized Dunder Mifflin's Scranton branch is in search of a new subject when they discover a dying historic Midwestern newspaper and the publisher trying to revive it with volunteer reporters. The series is produced by Universal Television.
The series is executive produced by Daniels and Koman along with Ricky Gervais, Stephen Merchant, Howard Klein, Ben Silverman and Banijay Americas (formerly Reveille).

Photos are now available for Onyx Collective's UnPrisoned. Season 2 of UnPrisoned premieres Wednesday, July 17 with all eight episodes streaming exclusively on Hulu. The Alexander family is still a mess. Paige’s therapy practice is in trouble, Finn’s anxiety is through the roof, Edwin is still figuring out how to get his life together outside of prison, and their relationships are more complicated than ever. The family needs help, and it’s time to call in a professional – OTHER than Paige. The Alexanders turn to a "family radical healing coach," who throws out all the rules to free them of the issues, old wounds and family secrets holding them back. The series is executive produced by Tracy McMillan, Yvette Lee Bowser and Kerry Washington, alongside Pilar Savone, through their Simpson Street production company, and Delroy Lindo. Joy Gorman Wettels and Jen Braeden also executive produce. The series hails from Onyx Collective on Hulu and is produced by ABC Signature.
CAST: Kerry Washington as Paige Alexander, Delroy Lindo as Edwin, Marque Richardson as Mal, Faly Rakotohavana as Finn, Jordyn McIntosh as Little Paige and Jee Young Han as Esti.
