Peacock Shares Never-Before-Seen ‘The Office’ Season Four Cold Open
Peacock has released a brand new, never-before-seen cold open from The Office. NBC‘s streaming service shared the clip ahead of the premiere of the fourth season of The Office: Superfan Episodes, and dates back to the 2008 episode “Job Fair.” Dunder-Mifflin regional manager Michael Scott can be heard screaming in the bathroom and is quickly attended to by Dwight. The pair head back into the office and Michael explains to everyone that he dropped everything — his phone, bluetooth earpiece, wallet, tip calculator and more — inside the toilet bowl.

Nicolas Cage Doesn’t Like Being Called an Actor
Don’t call him an actor, thank you very much. In a new interview, Nicolas Cage made it clear he prefers to be labeled as something much more serious when it comes to his profession. “I really don’t like the word actor because for me it always implies, ‘Oh, he’s a great actor, therefore he’s a great liar, and (great at) lying,’” he said during an appearance on the Variety Awards Circuit podcast. “So with the risk of sounding like a pretentious a–hole, I like the word thespian because thespian means you’re going into your heart. Or you’re going into your imagination, or your memories or your dreams, and you’re bringing something back to communicate with the audience.” The National Treasure star continued: “I think it’s more like recruiting imagination. Dare I say it, it’s more like a s...
