Max “Watch Me Spin” Greenfield is stepping out of Schmidt’s perfectly pressed pants and trying out a more grunge look for a new role he just landed. The New Girl talent will play Paul Rudd’s “wayward couch surfing younger brother” in the romcom parody They Came Together, according to Deadline. The film also stars Rudd’s recent Parks & Recreation nemesis Amy Poehler — landing Greenfield smack dab in the middle of Vulture’s comic Zeitgeist map.
