At times like this, there's really only one response I can offer: sweet. "A Couple of Dicks" director Kevin Smith has confirmed that "My Name is Earl" star Jason Lee will join the already loaded ensemble cast.

He was Brodie in that one -- a role he reprised in "Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back" -- and many would argue that his hilariously funny performance there informed all of the work that he's done since.

How fitting then that Levi will join the "Alvin and the Chipmunks" sequel cast as Dave Seville's (Jason Lee) "burnout cousin... who really just wants to play video games all day."
