B.J. Novak, who plays shady Dunder-Mifflin temp-turned-manager on The Office (he also is a writer and producer on the show) is in talks to play a soldier in Quentin Tarantino’s “Inglorius Bastards.” Not a bad gig.

Quentin Tarantino already has his sights set on casting Brad Pitt in “Inglorius Bastards,” his World War II film about Jewish resistance fighters in Vichy-era France. B.J. Novak would play Private Utivich.
