Perhaps the most speculated part Office reboot is its story, which was shrouded in mystery for a long time and contained very few details. However, when the series was officially greenlit in May 2024, plot details were also revealed. Office the reboot won't be a straight remake of the original, instead the documentary crew from the first show will focus on a new topic. The reboot will take place in the offices of a Midwestern newspaper as it works with a team of volunteer reporters to get back on its feet.

While this does not eliminate the possibility of crossover with the original program, the different scenery would make it difficult for Scranton residents to create scenes. However, the reboot will be set in the same universe as Office which opens the door to anything that can happen. Since the show is about a newspaper, it's quite possible that Dunder Mifflin is doing business with a struggling printing company in Office restart.
