According to the Hollywood Reporter, Paul Rudd is set to star in Errol Morris' next project, which remains untitled. The film will be written by Zack Helm, and is based on a memoir by Robert F. Nelson.

As described by THR, 'the movie will tell the story of first man to be cryonically preserved. It is unclear whether Rudd will play Nelson, the man who helped invent the technology used in the 1960s procedure or James Bedford, the dying man who was frozen.'

Rudd is perhaps best known for his roles in the films Clueless, Wet Hot American Summer, Anchorman, The 40-Year-Old Virgin, Knocked Up, Forgetting Sarah Marshall, Dinner For Schmucks, Role Models, I Love You, Man and How Do You Know. His stage credits include Three Days of Rain, Twelfth Night, The Last Night of Ballyhoo, bash: latter day plays, and The Shape of Things.
