An Aussie remake of The Office is greenlit for Prime

Worldwide hit series The Office is getting its 13th remake, courtesy of Australia and a new female lead called Hannah Howard.

Move over David Brent and get out of the way Michael Scott – Hannah Howard is here to show you how it’s done.

The staff of Flinley Craddick indulge her and must endure Hannah’s outlandish plots as they work toward the impossible targets that have been set for them.

‘We are thrilled to be bringing one of the biggest comedy franchises ever made to Prime Video customers in Australia and around the world,’ said Sarah Christie, senior development executive Prime Video Australia. ‘It is an honour to continue the international comedy legacy of The Office locally while introducing new, quintessentially Australian characters. We can’t wait for audiences to meet Hannah Howard, the first female boss The Office format has explored.’
