John Krasinski and Steve Carell may have their Office days way behind them, but the two are reuniting for Krasinski’s upcoming family-adventure movie IF. Just in, Krasinski has shared his reunion with Carell after years since The Office—which he managed to catch on camera.

For context, Carell had left the series in 2010, but he was able to make an appearance in the series finale which aired in 2013. The two haven’t starred in a picture together since, so that makes it roughly eleven years since the two last worked on a project together. Here’s the farewell scene between Jim and Michael from the show:
We don’t know how much Carell and Krasinski’s characters will be interacting in the show, but it is great to see the two together after all these years. Besides The Office alum, the movie has also managed to get a star-studded cast which includes the likes of Ryan Reynolds, Phoebe Waller-Bridge, Emily Blunt, Matt Damon, Sam Rockwell, Jon Stewart, and Maya Rudolph. They even managed to bring in the recently deceased Louis Gossett Jr.
I’ll admit, I was really expecting Krasinski to lean in on the horror movie genre like Jordan Peele, but I’m willing to see what he has to bring into the action-adventure stage. Sure movies for adults are complicated enough to make, but making a kids’ movie that manages to stand the test of time has got to be a different level of masterful.
Catch IF when it comes into theaters this May 17.
