Michael Emerson Not Very Interested on Replacing Steve Carell on ‘The Office’
Cast and Crew of Lost, Interviews View CommentsIf you are a fan of NBC’s “The Office” then you are likely aware of Steve Carell’s departure next year. Michael Emerson’s name has been mentioned on quite a few lists of possible replacements for Steve Carell. Here’s Emerson’s response, extracted from a recent interview with USA TODAY:
I’ve seen it mentioned online, but I don’t take it very seriously. No industry person has talked to me. And plus, who wants to follow Steve Carell in that part? The opportunity for failure or embarrassment is so high that even if we lived in an insane universe where I actually got offered such a thing, I don’t know if you’d say yes to that.
Michael also talked about his new project with Terry O’Quinn:
There’s ongoing buzz that you and Terry O’Quinn would like to do a project together. Is there any update on that? Is Terry the cast member you’ve kept in touch with the most?
I sure do stay in touch with Terry. There are some ideas being batted around in Hollywood where things move slowly and eccentrically, so I don’t know if anything will come from it, but I do know that some serious writers are playing around with ideas.
Whether it will ever see the light of day or not, I’m not sure. It would be a ways off in the future, but I would jump at the chance to do another show with Terry. We get along famously, and he’s about as good a scene partner as an actor will ever have.
What’s your next project?
The next time the public sees me is probably in a PBS series in October called God in America. I play a Puritan. It’s a three-or four-night series. It’s a documentary, but it also has period dramatizations.

Awards, Cast and Crew of Lost, Interviews View CommentsTerry O’Quinn:
It’s always great to be recognized for one’s work, and when friends are included in the recognition, it’s even better. With all the ‘LOST’ nominations, it’s almost as though the winning (or not winning) will be anti-climactic. I’m happy as can be for Matthew, and the only thing I can imagine that would be better than being nominated in the same category as Michael Emerson would be if the Emmy voters would be so kind as to let us win together, thank you very much……..but in truth, I feel as though they already have.
Elizabeth Mitchell:
I’m shocked. And so happy. I loved Juliet so much. The nomination is a wonderful way to say goodbye.
Michael Emerson:
I’m delighted at the broad recognition that “Lost” has received this year and am thrilled to be able to share the excitement with my cast mates. I’m also ecstatic that my wife Carrie’s show, “True Blood,” received a nomination–we’re both looking forward to the party in August.
