Steve Carell is returning to the small screen.
On Tuesday, it was announced that the 56-year-old actor has joined an untitled morning show drama starring Reese Witherspoon and Jennifer Aniston.
This is Carell's first series regular role since he wrapped The Office back in 2011.
According to THR, Steve will
play Mitch Kessler, a morning show anchor, who is struggling to stay relevant in the media world.
Both Aniston and Witherspoon will executive produce the series, which has already earned a two-season, 20-episode order, the Daily Mail reports.
