The new series will mark the 13th version of the hit sitcom.
In a huge shake-up to the format, the show will be led by an all female cast.
Wakefield and Inbetweeners star Felicity Ward will become the next Michael Scott and David Brent.
The show was shot in Sydney next with eight episodes will be filmed.
It will hit Prime Video this October as the streaming giant released a first look to fans.
Sharing a snap of Felicity‘s character Hannah Howard, they said: “There’s a new boss in town. #TheOffice premieres October 18 on Prime Video.”
Hannah Howard is the managing director of packaging company Flinley Craddick.
When she gets news from Head Office that they will be shutting down her branch and making everyone work from home, she goes into survival mode, making promises she can’t keep in order to keep her “work family” together.
The staff of Flinley Craddick indulge her and must endure Hannah’s outlandish plots as they work toward the impossible targets that have been set for them.
He said: “I’m very excited about Australia remaking my little show from the turn of the century.
“Office politics have changed a bit in 20 years, so can’t wait to see how they navigate a modern-day David Brent.”
