Krasinsk, Rain Wilson, and Helms should be able to consistently work

safe to say we'll probably never see Phyllis, Stanley, or Meredith on tv again.

Kevin could probably get token fat dumb guy roles here and there.

Krasinski is a funny guy. He'll work.

thank god

Jim will find plenty of work, as will Helms. Rain will continue to get the eccentric, nerdy roles he's been getting

Ellie kemper will get small roles in that group with Donald Glover.

Krasinski, Helms, Wilson, Robinson, and Fischer should all find work.

Hopefully plop does as well.

Wilson could have the curse of "Joey" where people only want to see him as that one character

This is what I'm thinking.

I agree with your OP for the most part. But not sure if Wilson will have a whole lot a success post-Office. It seems like he's already peaked, kind of.

I think he could make it as a smart arse side character in comedies.

He was pretty much the only thing I thought was funny in My Super Ex Girlfriend.

and while it wasn't a great movie, I found The Rocker to moderately amusing. Of course I was watching that purely for Emma Stone so I may have been slightly distracted.

Craig Robinson had been in a lot of comedic supporting roles before becoming a regular on the show.

Like Helms and Krasinski, I don't think he'll have much trouble finding more work.

Phyllis wasn't a professional actor before The Office. She worked behind the camera, got a walkon part and then became a permanent part of the cast.

I hope Creed lands somewhere. And Ellie Kemper is funny and attractive. I see a Fox sitcom in her future.

He's in with the Jonah Hill/ Seth Rogen crew. He's gonna be busy. I though he was hilarious in Hot Tub Time Machine.

They aired the pilot a few weeks back, it was really really bad.

Joey at least got one season for his terrible show

Jenna Fischer has done some really good work in unappreciated indy films in recent years. She'll have all the work she wants.
