One star of The Office US looks totally unrecognisable a decade after filming wrapped on the sitcom.
Rainn Wilson shot to fame as Dwight Schrute in the show alongside Steve Carrell and John Krasinski, starring in a total of 188 episodes over the years.
Known for his iconic aviator glasses, mustard yellow shirt and brunette, middle-parted hair, Dwight was obsessed with doing things right in the office – and not afraid to step on toes to get there.

He regularly updates fans via Instagram on his personal life, and headed out to support the actors’ strike this week in a simple outfit of a grey t-shirt, black shorts and a grey cap.
It comes after Rainn confessed his true feelings while filming The Office, admitting he was “mostly unhappy”.
He admitted on the Club Random podcast: “When I was in The Office, I spent several years really mostly unhappy because it wasn’t enough.
“I’m realising I’m on a hit show, Emmy nominated every year, making lots of money, working with Steve Carell and Jenna Fischer and John Krasinski and these amazing writers and incredible directors like Paul Feig. I’m on one of the great TV shows. People love it.

“I wasn’t enjoying it. I was thinking about, ‘Why am I not a movie star? Why am I not the next Jack Black or the next Will Ferrell? How come I can’t have a movie career? Why don’t I have this development deal?’” he said.
However, in an update for followers, Rainn branded recent headlines “clickbait”, explaining he was “all over the news” because he “honestly shared [his] experience around happiness and mental health”.
Since wrapping the show, Rainn has landed himself his very own documentary on Peacock, entitled Rainn Wilson and the Geography of Bliss.
