Rainn Wilson, The Rocker
The first thing you have to wonder as Rainn Wilson — aka The Office's Dwight Schrute — disappears into his big-screen role as The Rocker (in theaters today), is whether he boasts a wealth of experience as a music man. "I got to thankfully live through the shortest-lived high school band ever, Collected Moss," he shares. "We played two gigs. One was for a batch of 11-year-olds, and the other was for a battle of the bands which we didn't even get into."
"That," he emphasizes, "is how bad we were."
Nonetheless, Wilson says it just took two sticks and a kit to find his rhythm as Robert "Fish" Fishman, an almost-very famous drummer who begrudgingly joins his teenaged nephew's band. "The first thing I started to do was take drum lessons, and that totally opened my mind to who this guy was," says Wilson. "When you dru

Hey Office friends!
We are back in production! Season 5 has begun. It's going really well. I am mean it! I am not that drunk.
I want to pass along a letter from my friend and co worker, the great Rainn Wilson. I don't normally pimp people out but Rainn is very persuasive, making just a few threats. ( Just ask the kidnapped Jenna Fischer.)

Yes, Dwight Schrute watches television — and he's got a lot of opinions about it. At the Teen Choice awards, Schrute's real-life alter ego, Rainn Wilson, divulged what his Office character would tune into, and it's not all sci-fi (though Battlestar Galactica is, of course, on the list). According to Wilson, Schrute opts for anything about bears and for the manlier programs out there, much like Michael Scott might.

Can you imagine how amazing a full twenty-one minutes and thirty seconds of The Office's Dwight and Andy brawling over their lady love Angela would be? Rainn Wilson is all for it! See what the funnyman had to say about the upcoming season, his nerdy obsession with Lost and Battlestar and just how much his "body is a wonderland."

Out promoting The Rocker, a big-screen comedy in which he plays a coulda-been metal-band star (hitting theaters Aug. 20), Rainn Wilson set the record straight on what NBC's spin-off of The Office is, and what it isn't.First clarifying an old rumor that his Dwight was to front the follow-up, Wilson explained why that was never the case: "No. 1, they would never break up a formula that's already working. No. 2, they cast Amy Poehler [as the lead]. And No. 3, it's not going to be a spin-off per se." In fact, all that is known about the Poehler vehicle at this early stage is that it is being developed by Office scribes Michael Schur and Greg Daniels. Period.As to what Dwight will be up to, Wilson shrugged, "I have no idea," having yet to spy a single Season 5 script. That said, he told TVGuide.com that the notion of Angela bearing Dwight a Schrute yout' — as was speculated when scene partner Angela Kinsey became pregnant in real life — "would be brilliant... awesome. You shoul...

Could "Dwangela" be in trouble for good? Does Dwight get a new love interest when The Office returns April 10? TVGuide.com had the opportunity to ask series creator Greg Daniels and cast member Rainn Wilson (Dwight) about what's in store for Dunder-Mifflin's No. 1 paper salesman, especially now that Angela and Andy are dating.Daniels turned to Wilson and said, "Remember in your audition when you improv'd his ex-girlfriends? It's part of his character that he has some exes out there." Wilson then recalled, "We did an improvisation with me and Jenna [Fischer], where I told her that I had an ex-girlfriend stationed in Kuwait City... a reservist. I don't now if that's coming into play, but we will be seeing a lot more sides and facets of Dwight when it comes to dating." Well, doesn't that pique your curiosity about who will play the new woman in Dwight's life? Who do you think should play the part? — Erin FoxRelated:• Watch full episodes of The Office in our Online Video Guide...
