The BBC today announced that Gervais will reprise his iconic role as David Brent for Life on the Road, a feature film spinoff, which will follow Brent’s life 15 years after the end of the “documentary” series.
“We find out what Brent is doing now and what’s happened in the last 15 years since his redundancy from his beloved Wernham Hogg,” reads the official statement. “He’s a sales rep now, selling cleaning products up and down the country, but has never really given up on his dream of being a rock star.”
Production on Life on the Road is expected to begin in 2015.
