Ed Helms has signed on to star in the indie comedy Cedar Rapids.
The film tells the story of a wholesome and naive small-town Wisconsin man (Helms), who, when his role model dies, must represent his company at a regional insurance conference in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, where his mind is blown by the big-town experience.
There is currently no distributor lined up but it’s expected to go to Fox Searchlight.
So this is another one to add to the watch list. Ed Helms is awesome in everything he does and with the overwhelming success of The Hangover he’s sure to get even more roles in the future. His next film is The Goods: Live Hard, Sell Hard which opens in August and looks damn hilarious.
