The Paper follows the documentary crew that immortalized Scranton’s Dunder Mifflin branch in the series The Office as they set their sights on the historic Midwestern newspaper and the publisher trying to revive it at the Toledo Truth Teller. Fans will have to tune into Season 1 to see how it sets up Season 2.
While no official Season 2 casting has been unveiled, the show’s main ensemble features Domhnall Gleeson, Sabrina Impacciatore, Chelsea Frei, Melvin Gregg, Gbemisola Ikumelo, Alex Edelman, Ramona Young, Tim Key, and Oscar Nuñez, all of whom we’d anticipate returning.
The Paper is created for television by Greg Daniels and Michael Koman, both of whom serve as showrunners, writers, and executive producers. Additional executive producers on the series include Ricky Gervais, Stephen Merchant, Howard Klein, Ben Silverman, and Banijay Americas. The show hails from Universal Television, a division of Universal Studio Group.
