Steve Carell: Last News

Fifteen years later and the office — or, as it were — gossip is still the talk of the water cooler. In Andy Greene's just-released oral history,, he interviews the creators and stars of the beloved NBC series, along with the people behind the scenes of Scranton.

The new book “The Office: The Untold Story of the Greatest Sitcom of the 2000s” reportedly reveals the real reason why Steve Carell decided to leave The Office before the show’s run officially ended.

It’s been 15 years since viewers first followed the employees at the Dunder Mifflin Paper Company on The Office.

From all accounts, the casting of the Michael Scott character on hit NBC series The Office was the longest and among the hardest decisions producers had to make.And as its die-hard fans know, the role eventually was given to Steve Carell, but it nearly went to Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul star Bob Odenkirk.'We were circling Bob Odenkirk. He was available.

Steve Carell played the iconic Michael Scott on The Office and now, fans are being clued in on who almost won the role: Better Call Saul and Breaking Bad star Bob Odenkirk!

Elaine Low Senior TV WriterFrom Steve Carell in Apple TV Plus’ “The Morning Show” and Netflix’s “Space Force” to Russell Crowe in Showtime’s “The Loudest Voice,” the 2019-’20 television season has been punctuated by big-screen actors who have returned to television after years away.It has been decades since Crowe was in the medium: The actor got his start on Australian soap “Neighbours” in the late 1980s before moving onto big-screen roles.

“The Office” almost went over a cliff, literally, but thankfully Steve Carell was there to save it.

borrows a lot of heavy realities from the “Saturday Night Live” star’s own life: his character Scott lost his firefighter father at age 7; he still lives on Staten Island with his mom; and he makes more brow-raising choices than Kanye.And, also like the real-life Davidson, there is nary a moment where Scott isn’t the most likable person on the damn planet.That’s director Judd Apatow’s signature move: taking a talent we love — Davidson, Steve Carell, Amy Schumer, tenderizing them with a cinematic meat mallet and delivering an emotional wallop of a film we didn’t know they were capable of.“The King of Staten Island,” which is co-written by Davidson, Apatow and Dave Sirus, is a grounded fantasy of what the actor’s life might’ve turned out to

Judd Apatow knows talent when he sees it. For years, he has made a career out of giving cinematic showcases to comedians.

Lil Nas X, 21, is calling out FOX News presenter Tucker Carlson, 51, for a segment he did on celebrities donating money to bail out protesters who were arrested after marching to stop racial injustice in the midst of George Floyd‘s tragic death. The rapper claims Carlson “lied to millions of people” when he said that the donations, which were also made by Chrissy Teigen, Steve Carell, Janelle Monae, and many more, are being given to incite riots. He reposted a video of the news report by Carlson when he tweeted the claim.

Kim Kardashian, Chrissy Teigen, and more stars spoke out about the U.S. protests that have been taking place in cities across the country to fight for social injustice and justice for George Floyd‘s tragic death, and generously offered to help with money for those who were arrested and hurt. Many of the brave people who were on the frontlines of the sometimes brutal protests have been sharing unsettling stories, photos, and videos of their experiences with violence on the streets during the demonstrations that took place and Kim is one celeb who took notice right away.

The one where Friends is finally available to stream again. If the last weekend of May 2020 had an episode title, it would be that, as HBO Max officially launched on May 27, with all 10 seasons of the iconic NBC sitcom once again available for fans to re-watch for the 12th time! (And we've also listed our 25 favorite episodes, should you need some recommendations.) But if you are still on a break with Ross and Rachel, we've got a bunch of other recommendations for you to watch this weekend, including Steve Carell's new workplace comedy for Netflix, two new comedy specials and, of course, our non-Friends picks to check out on HBO Max.

I'm just going to come right out and say it: The new Netflix comedySpace Force is a complete and utter disappointment. When you look at the creative minds behind Space Force — Steve Carell reuniting with The Office creator Greg Daniels! — it should be The Right Stuff of space comedies. But despite the names attached and the mountain of cash Netflix threw behind it, it's more of a sleek, high-powered, expensive rocket that tips over and explodes on a school bus full of children before it can even launch. 

It’s a long weekend, the weather is glorious and tragedy of tragedies we’re all pretty much stuck at home but nevermind.

It’s all about your crew.

Steve Carell has said his new Netflix comedy is politically “fluid” rather than “hyper-political.”

Steve Carell is a hot commodity these days, but the hottest thing about him in 2003 was his scalp.

Lisa Kudrow had “no idea” that there was a real-life Space Force while she was filming a Netflix comedy about the military agency.
