John C. Reilly Visits Cedar Rapids
John C. Reilly has joined the cast of Cedar Rapids for Fox Searchlight.
The road-trip comedy stars Ed Helms as a wholesome and naive small-town Wisconsin man who must represent his company at a regional insurance conference in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, where his mind is blown by the big-town experience. Reilly will play another conference attendee, a family man who sees the event as a vacation and time to let loose. Miguel Arteta will direct.
Reilly next stars in Cirque du Freak: The Vampire’s Assistant.
