And fans won't have to wait long to see the actor again on the big screen. Rudd's got more than a few projects lined up for the future.

He's also bringing the bestselling book, The Perks of Being a Wallflower to the big screen next year with Emma Watson, Vampire Diaries Nina Dobrev and relative newcomer Logan Lerman. 

And, no surprise, the Judd Apatow regular is currently filming This Is Forty, a follow-up to the director's 2007 hit, Knocked Up, with Leslie Mann, Megan Fox, Jason Segel and John Lithgow.
