Sigourney Weaver has joined the cast of Ed Helms and John C. Reilly comedy Cedar Rapids.

Rapids follows the story of a "wholesome and naive man" from Wisconsin (Helms) who is forced to represent his company at a regional conference in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, where he is shocked by the big-town experience.

According to Variety, Weaver will play Helms's former seventh-grade teacher.

Last week, Anne Heche was also confirmed for the Fox Searchlight project. Miguel Arteta will direct and shooting has already begun.
