It’s hard to forget the friendship between actors Steve Carell (Michael Scott) and John Krasinski (Jim Halpert) for fans of the popular workplace drama The Office. Eleven years after the conclusion of The Office, they are finally getting back together, but they won’t be sharing the screen.
In fact, they come together for the film IF, a fantasy comedy that combines live action and animation. Krasinski wrote, directed and co-produced the film IF, which stars Ryan Reynolds. It will be Krasinski’s first time directing his Office co-star, who voices the animated character Blue in the film.
Fans did, however, get a taste of their old camaraderie in a video uploaded by Krasinski on his X account. He captioned it, “Reunited and it feeeeels so gooooood!”

The video is from a recording session of IF, and Krasinski is speaking to the camera about reuniting with Carell, “who happens to be a dear friend.” “We worked on this little thing a long time ago,” he states, alluding to The Office.
The video then shows Carell entering the recording room and hugging Krasinski. They exchange usual reunion greetings, such as “it’s been years,” before Steve glances at the camera and adds, “I’m glad we’re getting it.” The two then burst into laughter, and Krasinski explains that this was Carell’s 5th take on staging their reunion. Carell then asks his director for one more.
He steps out again and reappears as Krasinski drinks some water, spitting it out in surprise. They repeat the whole thing with more energy, complimenting one another on how nice they seem. The video then switches to Carell recording his lines as Blue, as Krasinski watches.
