Rainn Wilson, Sarah Silverman in talks for Peep World

Most of the stars of "The Office" do pretty well at reaching beyond the show with other projects. Rashida Jones is currently in "I Love You, Man," and Steve Carell, John Krasinski, and Jenna Fischer have all done movies outside the show.

Rainn Wilson is another "Office" alum who’s kept a foot in the movie biz, which is good because he’s identified so much with his character of Dwight Schrute.

Now he’s in talk to star in "Peep World," an indie film about a dysfunctional family. Sarah Silverman is also in talks, and Michael C. Hall (loved him in "Six Feet Under" and "Dexter") and Ben Schwartz are already on board.

The movie centers on a group of adult siblings who start squabbling after one of them uses the family – or a thinly veiled version of the family – in his novel.

Sounds like a winner.
