Adam Scott Joins MY MOTHER

Adam Scott is a scene-stealer. He’s consistently funny and nails every role he takes on, no matter how small, from Step Brothers to NBC’s Parks and Recreation. So I’m happy to report that the actor’s nabbed roles in a couple of upcoming projects. First up, Risky Business reports that Scott has been cast in the comedy My Mother’s Curse alongside Seth Rogen, Barbara Streisand, Yvonne Strahovski and Colin Hanks. Anne Fletcher (The Proposal) directs from a script by Dan Fogelman (Tangled) that centers on an inventor (Rogen) who invites his mother along for a cross-country trip while he attempts to sell his new product and connect with a long lost love. Lorne Michaels, Evan Goldberg and John Goldwyn are producing.

Additionally, Scott has been cast in See Girl Run. Written and directed by Nate Meyer (Pretty in the Face), the film centers on a girl “who gets caught up in ‘what ifs’ that cause her to dig back into her romantic history.” Scott is set to play a local hero from her hometown that stayed there to become an artist while pining for his high school love. Scott will next be seen alongside Paul Rudd, Elizabeth Banks and Zooey Deschanel in Our Idiot Brother which opens August 26th.

As the titular 'Idiot Brother', Rudd plays a hippie farmer who gets arrested after selling weed to an officer in uniform. When he gets out, he goes back to live with his mom and three sisters as he tries to get back on his feet while making one painfully stupid decision after another because he blindly swears by the kindness of others and is generally just dumb.

Co-starring Emily Mortimer, Steve Coogan, Zooey Deschanel, and Elizabeth Banks among others

'My Idiot Brother' should still end up one of this year's most audience-friendly comedies. And that's not such a bad thing.

More Urkel characters from supposedly funny people.

Awesome.

The New York Times says:

… the centerpieces of the show are sketches that cleverly unravel, filling the second half of each episode with long, absurd narratives starring billionaires dressed as hobos, drug lords with passport problems, and thimble-size gangsters (who live, natch, in Little Little Italy). These detours make the show something more interesting than a fake-news or prank-show clone …
