The blond beauty will play "a highly-regarded actress making formulaic comedy bombs," who is having an affair with film director Frank (played by Steve Carell) in the upcoming movie, THR reports.

In addition to Carell, Banks joins an impressive cast that includes Jack Black (set to play Francis, a snarky online blogger), Kevin Kline, Catherine Keener and Nicolas Cage in the satirical comedy.
