Netflix's "Space Force" reunites the kings of modern comedy in a workplace comedy about the newly created sixth branch of the US military, as Steve Carell (The Office) and creator Greg Daniels re-team: the Space Force A new trailer has also been released

"Space Force" is basically a satire that puts Michael Scott in charge of a group of scientists and astronauts whose goal is to conquer space The film is sure to be a hilarious romp, and there are many near-misses In addition to Carell, the cast includes John Malkovich, Ben Schwartz, Diana Silvers, and Tawny Newsom

Space Force does not publicly acknowledge the tie, but it bears the same name as the military division President Donald Trump called for in 2018 and created last year

Maybe

Netflix released the original "Space Force" teaser trailer on May 5, the day after Star Wars Day 2020 Could this be a coincidence? I don't think so

The trailer is a showcase for Carell, whose General Mark R Nehardt seems to be a more competent version of Michael Scott, but just as clumsy and unsympathetic He also has a short fuse, which gets even shorter as he gets stuck on his ridiculous project of "conquering space" In one scene, a frustrated Naird tries to calm himself by singing the Beach Boys

Other characters pop up here and there, including Neard's daughter, his wife, and an eccentric scientist played by John Malkovich; like "The Office," "Space Force" is likely to be an ensemble of interesting supporting characters revolving around the lead character
