Helms, Fischer, Krasinski to Return to THE OFFICE

Deadline.com reports that after long-running negotiations, THE OFFICE stars Ed Helms, John Krasinski and Jenna Fischer have signed agreements to appear on the NBC comedy when it returns this fall. 

The sitcom has undergone many changes in recent years, including the departure of its original star Steve Carell last season. Series regular Rainn Wilson is getting ready to star in his own Office spin-off next year while B.J. Novac and Mindy Kaling will soon appear in Kaling's new comedy which was just picked up by the Fox network. Both Helms and Krasinski have been juggling their starring roles on the series with their busy film careers. Helms is in the process of filming The Hangover's third installment.

THE OFFICE remains NBC’s highest-rated comedy. Showrunner Paul Lieberstein recently left the show to focus on the Wilson spin-off. NBC has not yet named his replacement.
