EXCLUSIVE: Comic actor Rob Riggle has signed with WME in all areas. Riggle is shaping up to be one of the next comedy guys. He’s funny as the new comic relief on the Fox NFL Sunday pregame show; he appeared in 21 Jump Street and lent his voice to Dr. Seuss’ The Lorax, both big hits. Riggle, best known for his turns in the Will Ferrell comedies The Other Guys and Step Brothers, next lends his voice to the R-rated stop-motion animated comedy Hell And Back, alongside Mila Kunis and Susan Sarandon, and he’ll next be seen starring with Johnny Knoxville and Patton Oswalt in Nature Calls. Riggle, the former Daily Show correspondent, hosted the ESPY Awards and he’ll guest star in the Thanksgiving episode of Fox’s New Girl.
In addition, he is developing an untitled Wall Street comedy based off his own idea to star and produce for HBO, reuniting him with his The Other Guys collaborators Adam McKay and Ferrell’s Gary Sanchez Productions and Mark Wahlberg and Stephen Levinson, all of whom are producing.
Riggle continues to be managed by Principato-Young.


Riggle is long on attitude and intensity. But short on actual funny.
Amen to that. The same could be said of fellow Daily Show correspondent Jessica Williams.
Ari Gold stealing another one from CAA!
Yeah I don’t get him and he is not funny. It’s good to be friends with Walhberg.
Movie studios need to pay attention this DUDE is funny and I want to see more of him on the big screen
Gift, yes he is funny and not annoying like most comics.
Did you see him at the ESPYs? Watch the job he did hosting. Not a single funny joke throughout. Not one. He is lacking in humor and talent. Just an absolutely awful comedian, but I’m sure a nice guy.

I doubt you are a sports or comedy fan as you obviously didn’t see the ESPYs Riggle was fantastic on all levels!! Now turn on ice skating and the your favorite show GOON!
Please, somebody, fire him from Fox’s NFL Sunday. I’d rather watch ten hours of Terry Bradshaw than Riggle’s lame skits.
Riggle is worlds better than Frank Caliendo. Guy shouldn’t have even made it off of UTube. Rob’s bits have been a little hit or miss but I thought they crushed it with his Ryan brothers segment last week.
“Riggle is shaping up to be one of the next comedy guys.” Missed it by a little.
Riggle has been forced, for a few years now, on a public that seems to not care for much that he does.
Riggle has not been forced enough on us. This guy is a hysterical powerhouse. WANT MORE RIGGLE!
Rob’s hilarious. Hope to see him mix it up a bit tho.
can we have all that money back?
There’s a typo in the first paragraph. You left out the word “not” in this sentence: “He’s funny as the new comic relief on the Fox NFL Sunday pregame show…”
The man is NOT funny. At. All. Bring back Caliendo.
I think he’s hysterical and am looking forward to bigger roles for him.
