A comedy starring John C. Reilly and Ed Helms?  Yeah, I think I’m on board.  THR is reporting that Reilly has signed on to co-star in “Cedar Rapids”, a comedy about a ” 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.”  Reilly would also play a family man attending the conference but his character sees it as a chance to bust loose.  Miguel Arteta is on board to direct which will take his mind off his previous film, “Youth in Revolt”, being unable to grab onto a release date.
