Felicity Ward Takes the Helm inThe Office Australia: Embracing the Challenge Ahead
Imagine stepping onto the field in a legendary franchise—yeah, that’sFelicity Wardgearing up forThe Office Australia! Dropped on October 18 on Amazon Prime Video (not in the U.S., though), this Aussie reboot is bringing the laughs with a fresh take on a classic sitcom that’s been adapted 13 times. With Ward stepping into the role of Hannah Howard, managing director of Flinley Craddick, the pressure is real. She’sfully aware that fans are ready to come at her, as he revealed:
When I got the job, I just I cried because I was so happy. To get the lead in any sitcom is very, very exciting, but to get to be a part of The Office! It’s like forever, I will be a part of The Office. Whatever happens from now on, I was in The Office.
Like call your mum, you know what I mean? And then five minutes later, I was like, ‘Oh, I’m gonna get f**king dragged by the internet. They’re really gonna come for me.’ And so I do not get involved in the Internet at all.
Following the franchise formula, this version keeps the mockumentary vibes, quirky characters, and that delicious will-they-won’t-they office romance. But here’s the kicker: Hannah is the first female boss in the franchise, and Ward isn’t shying away from that spotlight. “Not even for a second!”she says about taking on this iconic role. She knows it’s a huge opportunity and is here for the ride.
