HOLLYWOOD - British funnyman Ricky Gervais' cult TV comedy The Office is set for even more success--as a spin-off.

Bosses at NBC are planning an episode that will introduce new characters to the hit comedy before they jump to their own series, according to TV Guide magazine.
A major Hollywood star is currently being considered for the lead role in the spin-off.
