By filling big shoes
Although The paper follows the success of The office20 years later, some members of the cast revealed that there was more excitement to be part of something new instead of the pressure of continuing the legacy of the original series.
“I was sure he could create a character he trusted, a character he could create, so much that I was not worried that he was comparable to another character,” Gregg said in the shadow and Bravity. “Because people are different, do you know what I mean?
Young added: “I think throughout the process, we were very sure that this was their thing, and the characters are new, and the dynamics and stories were new. So I only rest in that knowledge.”
For Ikumelo, who had the opportunity to sit in the writer’s room and work on scripts for The paper Together with portraying Adelola, there was an initial nervousness to get to know his character. But Ikumelo said he felt enthusiastic about what he could contribute to the program.
“At first, I really struggled with these types of dynamics to defend my character as an actor, but also writing for the wider show,” said Ikumelo. “ I didn’t want to feel like I was a little focused on my character, because I really wanted to bring stories for everything. Then, I think at some point, I felt like: ‘Oh, I think I really did the opposite, and I didn’t spend much time with my character. God, I love this. And it went from a kind of straight, “ I want to be the best in the office, to be a little more … A kind of big boots and only hair.
The members of his character include Oscar Martinez de Nuñez and Adam Cooper Edelman. Edelman noted that Adelola de Ikumelo often reports his character.
“This unlocked my character,” Edelman said. “My character is a bit in fact because he thought he would be the most annoying for his character next to him and so. The truth is that he is quite beautiful and fun, but when you think about it, it is how the rooms of the writers should work. One person does something, another person is fantastic. We try to add … And so I think, for me, it was like” what is really useful in the world? Space that would be a lot of fun to play that you don’t play anywhere else? We eventually turned into a very fun trio.
Nuñez in playing his role of Oscarscar
When asked about the motivation behind his Oscar’s role in a different environment, The office Veteran Nuñez said he trusted the creator Greg Daniels.
“I knew I was in good hands and I am like,” What are you thinking? “It’s like,” I don’t know, but I have an idea on a role and I don’t know. “Then, after a while,” come and meet the writers.
Much more than laughter
Beyond the comic appearance of the show, the greatest theme of the legacy of printed journalism is a main focus, as the cast seems to relive a local newspaper, which Young and Gregg pointed out will be very important for younger generations.
“I think Melvin mentioned earlier how so much misinformation is today, and only I love the optimism and healthy idealization of trying to keep a local newspaper alive and I’m all for it,” said Young.
Gregg added: “ I agree. I feel that he is trying to hold on to some of the best ways of the old one, while you do not have access or exposure to so much, and it is more simplified.It is a small city, it is healthy, nostalgic, as the newspaper was a specific thing that, millennials, for most, remember.We remember. Or you can be in the newspaper if you did something great, and only the most great.
“I think this is something we lose, a general community, a small community,” he continued. “And this talks to a group of uninformed people trying to cling to this.”
