‘The Office’ Stars Reveal Why Dwight Never Appeared As Manager In Title Sequence
Although Rainn Wilson's Dwight Schrute finally became manager of Dunder Mifflin, 'The Office' character never got his moment in the title sequence.
After reaching out to David Rogers, who directed the ninth and final season’s penultimate episode ‘A.A.R.M.’, Fischer explained “that there was discussion about adding a Dwight-as-manager shot at the end of this title sequence.” She added, “But, ultimately, they never filmed anything new for it, and here is why: The main reason was they wanted to use Pam and Jim kissing as the final image in the main title for several episodes because they felt that, at this point, the idea of who is his manager had been eclipsed by the character’s personal lives, and they felt like the focus here of these final episodes was more about summing up Jim and Pam.” Fischer’s Pam Beesly had an onscreen romance with co-worker Jim Halpert ( John Krasinski), with the characters tying the knot in Season 6 and going on to have kids.
