Move over Michael Scott and David Brent — it’s time for The Office to get a refresh, Aussie style! An Australian version of The Office franchise is coming to Prime Video and this time the out of touch middle manager will be played by a woman.
Wakefield star Felicity Ward has been tapped to play Hannah Howard, the managing director of the Finley Craddick packaging company. In a borrowed-from-the-headlines twist, Howard learns that her office is about to be shut down and the employees will all be working remotely as part of the company’s new post-COVID work model.
