John C. Reilly is joining Ed Helms in the new comedy Cedar Rapids.

The story, by Phil Johnston, centers on 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’s character also is attending the conference and is a family man who sees the event as a vacation and time to let loose.

This movie is a lot more appealing already, seeing Reilly and Ed Helms together sounds like a comic treat. Hopfully it’s really well written, a lot of comedy these days just falls flat.
