Stephen Merchant Says ‘The Outlaws’ Will Be Rested After Season 3
'The Outlaws' Season 3 could be the show's last, Stephen Merchant has said, as he talked working with 'Baby Reindeer' star Jessica Gunning.
He said there are no plans to make more Outlaws as it currently stands and he is instead preparing for a stand-up comedy tour and working on developing film scripts, along with exec producing Greg Daniels’ upcoming TheOffice spin-off. “My only fear now she is a superstar is that she won’t return my calls,” added Merchant, who said he has been “lucky enough” to work with a number of successful actors at the start of their careers, citing Martin Freeman in the UK Office and Florence Pugh, who led his 2019 wrestling pic Fighting with my Family. As the co-creator of one of the best-known sitcoms of all time, Merchant welcomed the trend, which has been talked up in recent weeks by BBC comedy boss Jon Petrie and the heads of Such Brave Girls producer Various Artists Limited.
