Oh my god, OK, it’s happening. <\/p>\n

Netflix revealed today that Space Force, the new comedy<\/a> starring Steve Carell<\/a><\/strong>, has officially started filming, and they even released a picture of Carell himself. Sure, it’s a slightly blurry, zoomed-in picture of the back of his head, but at least it’s something! <\/p>\n

Space Force<\/em>, in case you’ve forgotten, is created by Office<\/em> creator Greg Daniels<\/strong> and Carell and stars Carell as General Mark R. Naird, the guy in charge of the people tasked with creating a sixth branch of the armed services called Space Force. The idea came after President Donald Trump<\/a><\/strong> announced plans to create such a thing in real life in June of 2018, and in fact when you google “Space Force,” the first result is the Space Force page<\/a> of Military.com. <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

As that site notes, Congress has yet to authorize the establishment of a U.S. Space Force, so we’ll likely get the show before we get the actual military branch. But maybe the show will give the actual military some ideas? <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

In space no one can hear you scream \u2026 but this show takes place on earth sooooo<\/p>\n

The show will consist of 10 episodes, each 30 minutes long, and has collected a pretty solid group of cast members to star alongside Carell. <\/p>\n

John Malkovich<\/a><\/strong> will play Dr. Adrian Mallory, the head science advisor, “brilliant, arrogant, and hoping to prevent space from becoming the next great international battlefield.” <\/p>\n

Ben Schwartz<\/strong> plays F. Tony Scarapiducci, “a self-centered media consultant whose Machiavellian goals only sometimes line up with those of Mark or Space Force.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Diana Silvers<\/strong>, who you might remember as the cool girl from Booksmart<\/em>, plays Erin Naird, daughter of Mark Naird. She was a popular A-student in Washington DC, but after the family moves to a remote military base in Wild Horse, Colorado, she becomes an outcast and turns to delinquency. <\/p>\n

Tawny Newsome<\/strong> plays Angela Ali, an ambitious and competitive helicopter pilot “with secret dreams that she keeps close to the vest.” <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

Recurring guest stars will include Jimmy O. Yang<\/strong> as Doctor Chan Kaifang, a brilliant astrophysicist and rocket engineer and Dr. Mallory’s right-hand man who immigrated from China as a teen and loves all things American, and Alex Sparrow<\/strong> as Yuri “bobby” Telatovich, a charming observer from the Russian government who’s curious about things in Mark’s life like his daughter or “the tech specs of the Javelin missile.” <\/p>\n

The show will launch on Netflix in 2020, which sounds far away until we remember that 2020 is somehow in only 3 months. <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
