The Office: 10 Characters You Totally Forgot Existed

The Office was no stranger to bringing in well-known stars for brief cameos, as massive comedians like Will Farrell, Jim Carrey and Catherine Tate all played memorable - if quick - roles. However, there are a few more that you might not recall so well, and one of the most notable was Dakota Johnson's role in the show's finale.

This character - known simply as Dakota - was brought in as Kevin's replacement after Dwight fired him. She appeared mostly in brief shots but had one memorable scene where she spoke to Oscar about a fictional letter that kept appearing in all of Kevin's accounts called Keleven. This was a number he'd made up to balance accounts and was, in fact, the reason why he was fired.

Seeing her in the role was amusing but likely not too memorable as her star-power wasn't huge at the time. She'd made an impression in projects like The Social Network, 21 Jump Street and The Five-Year Engagement, but this cameo is far more of a retrospectively impressive one thanks to her more considerable fame now.
