Matt Walsh To Helm 'High Road'

High Road
If anyone knows how to fly by the seat of his pants, it's actor Matt Walsh. One of the founders of the Chicago-based comedy troupe Upright Citizens Brigade, Walsh will direct an improvised feature called "High Road" that he wrote with Josh Weiner. And he has recruited a raft of well-known comedians to star, including Horatio Sanz ("Saturday Night Live"), Rob Riggle ("The Daily Show With Jon Stewart"), Abby Elliott ("SNL"), Lizzy Caplan ("Hot Tub Time Machine"), Kyle Gass ("Tenacious D in the Pick of Destiny") and Zach Woods ("The Office").

The film follows a part-time weed dealer who goes on the run with a 16-year-old smartass after a drug deal goes bad. Joe Lo Truglio, Andrew Daly, Brandon Johnson, Seth Morris, Joe Nunez, Rich Fulcher and Dylan O'Brien also have joined the cast.
