Will Ferrell has played some hilarious roles in great comedic films and series over the years, but one of his favorites was his four-episode arc in The Office, in which he played Deangelo Vickers.

Peacock has released The Office: Superfan Episodes, which includes extended cuts of NBC’s groundbreaking sitcom, and they include the four-episodes that see Ferrell’s character take over for Steve Carell’s Michael Scott.

Ferrell and Carell have collaborated plenty of times over their long careers, and they will be seen (or heard) next in the popular franchise sequel Despicable Me 4.

At the film’s recent press junket, CinemaBlend was able to ask Ferrell about his Office stint, and the actor volunteered some “superfan trivia” of his own, revealing that this major run on national television was originally supposed to be a simple cameo:

“But you know what’s interesting about that? A little superfan trivia here. I knew it was Steve’s last season, and I just reached out to my agents going, ‘I’d love to just do a cameo on The Office, because I know Steve.’ And they were like, ‘Okay, they’re excited. They love it.

What about a four-show arc?’ [Laughs] I was like, ‘Of course, this will be so much fun.’ And it was. It’s one of my favorite things I’ve ever gotten to do.”

Ferrell was so delightfully weird and hilarious in this role, it’s fun to hear that he enjoyed doing it as much as we enjoyed watching. Check out a compilation of his best moments on the show below, and catch Despicable Me 4 when it hits theaters on July 3rd.
