Jim Carrey in 'Office' season finale
Add Jim Carrey's name to the growing list of high-profile guest stars set to appear in this season's final episode of "The Office." A source close to the NBC production said the "Yes Man" star will join Ricky Gervais, Will Arnett, James Spader, Ray Romano, Catherine Tate and Will Ferrell as guest stars on the season-ending show.
Steve Carell's final appearance is scheduled for Thursday. The hourlong Season 7 finale of "The Office" airs May 19.
No replacement for Carell has been announced. A theory came and went recently that Ferrell would stick around as a permanent cast member. But as a busy and highly successful movie star, he seems a long shot to be tied down to a series.
A previously reported alternate theory: "The Office" might promote from within, filling the void with a member of the show's large existing cast.
