Could Warren Buffett be the new boss on 'The Office'? According to the Hollywood Reporter, billionaire Buffett will interview for the Scranton branch manager position at Dunder Miflin Sabre.

Buffett will play an unnamed (as of now) character who interviews for the position Steve Carell's Michael Scott recently vacated.

Joining Buffett in the interview process will be Ricky Gervais -- his second appearance as David Brent, the character he originated on the U.K. version of 'The Office' -- Will Arnett, Catherine Tate, Ray Romano, James Spader and Jim Carrey.

Will Ferrell's Deangelo Vickers also returns for the season 7 finale.

Despite all the guest stars, all the rumors we've heard indicate a veteran 'Office' employee will take the boss role.

Carell's Michael Scott left the series to join his fiancee Holly in Colorado. The character had been the boss of the fictional paper company's Scranton branch since the first episode.

'The Office' airs its season finale on May 19. NBC has already renewed the hit comedy for a season 8.
