Job security gets tangled up with someone else's marriage in Out Of Office, a 2022 American workplace comedy built around an assistant who ends up more invested in her boss's home life than her own career.
What is Out Of Office about?
A young employee gradually realizes that keeping her position depends less on her actual work and more on whether she can help her boss hold his crumbling marriage together, an arrangement that pulls her into a role nobody hired her for. Directed by Paul Lieberstein, the film leans into the awkward comedy of an office worker becoming an unofficial marriage counselor, watching professional boundaries blur as personal crises spill into the workday. What starts as an odd favor turns into an ongoing obligation, and the film tracks how far she is willing to go to protect a job that increasingly depends on factors she cannot control. Milana Vayntrub leads as the assistant navigating this strange arrangement, with Jason Alexander as the boss whose marriage sits at the center of the story, backed by a supporting cast that includes Oscar Nunez, Jim Rash, and Ken Jeong bringing the office itself to life around them.
