The comedian already has a supporting part in the upcoming infidelity laugh-em-up Hall Pass and just finished shooting a role in David Gordon Green's The Sitter; now, according to Deadline, he'll also have parts in Cameron Crowe's We Bought a Zoo and Ice Age 4, which is pretty good news except the whole age Ice Age sequel part.
