Oscar-winner Joachim Back (The New Tenants) will direct the dark comedy Corner Office – the film adaptation of Jonas Karlsson’s surreal novel The Room, about an office outsider finding a hidden place of refuge. Mad Men star Jon Hamm, Danny Pudi, Sarah Gadon and Christopher Heyerdahl are headlining the movie.

The office satire sees Hamm play Orson, a compulsive bureaucrat who discovers a secret room his co-workers deny exists. Community star Pudi is the messy office colleague Rakesh, while Gadon plays Alyssa, a charming receptionist who catches Orson’s eye. Heyerdahl plays the well-meaning boss, Andrew. The movie is shooting in Vancouver through mid-March.
