New York - Will Ferrell is coming to The Office.
Ferrell will play a visiting branch manager over several episodes. NBC announced the casting on Wednesday with the promise that Ferrell's character will be "just as inappropriate" as Steve Carell's Michael Scott.
Carell's farewell is expected four episodes before the season finale of The Office. In preparation of his exit, NBC is bringing in high-profile guests, including The Office creator Ricky Gervais, reprising his role as David Brent.
