The Office star is refunding all proceeds received for their proposed Uncle Stan spinoff, but insist the project is not dead (via toofab)
Anyone who has already received their reward can also expect a refund. While they did not offer Indiegogo figures, they promised that all backers on that platform will also receive refunds.post on Baker's page seems to indicate they are still hoping to move forward with it. The reasons for the delays include the COVID-19 pandemic of 2020, which set them back. Once things started to get back on track, the dual WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes have halted things again.
"We have been working behind the scenes to get everything on track and rewards fulfilled," reads this update."We are just as excited as all of you to get this project out and truly appreciate all of your patience and support."The update does not explain how they plan to move forward after refunding all of the crowdsourced money received so far, or if they will reach out at a later date to their fanbase again.
While Baker and Khan have explained why refunds will not reach the entire total, this numbers discrepancy could well continue that narrative of doubt that any of this was legitimate. That said, based on their explanation, anyone who did donate should be getting full refunds of whatever amount they actually provided to the project.
