Among their several upcoming projects are an action comedy recently picked up by Indian Paintbrush, which has Kristen Wiig attached to star. In addition, there’s also another collaboration with Alexander Payne in the works, and a directorial debut with Sam Rockwell and Allison Janney set to star. More after the jump.

For her part, Wiig’s been enjoying her own career boost since the success of Bridesmaids. She’s got Friends With Kids, Imogene, and Revenge for Jolly! all due out this year, with The Comedian, Freezing People is Easy, and The Secret Life of Walter Mitty lined up beyond that. A collaboration with Faxon and Rash seems like an intriguing addition to her already crowded — but very promising — slate.
