Rainn Wilson owes me a bobblehead doll. I suppose I should have known something like the below was possible when I brought the bestselling NBC toy(?) with me to my interview with him the other day. But does anyone ever really expect to see a man break a toy of himself? Words don't do the situation justice. Check out the star of "The Rocker" wreak havoc below.

MTV was the first to bring you news about Rainn Wilson's casting in "Transformers: Rise of the Fallen" so of course we chatted up "The Rocker" star when he swung by the offices the other day about the part that he has since filmed.

Wilson admitted that he hadn't read the entire script and called his role a "small cameo." "I played a college professor," he continued, calling the scene "strangely comedic." Asked what the notorious Michael Bay is like to work with and Wilson playfully called him "a sweetheart." "If you see him just go up to him and give him a big hug. He's a BIG hugger."

All that plus Rainn revealed the true title of the film! Well, sort of. Watch below.

We already brought you reports for "The Foot Fist Way" and "You Don't Mess With The Zohan," and now we continue with "The Rocker" for MTV's Sneak Peek Week, where we're screening upcoming summer films, followed by a Q&A with the film's stars.

This time out, it was "Office" star Rainn Wilson, "House Bunny" hottie Emma Stone and platinum-selling music artist Teddy Geiger in attendance. Watch the highlights below, and then click here to read our full "Rocker" Q&A coverage. And be sure to check back soon as we roll out "Kung Fu Panda," "Get Smart" and "Pineapple Express."

The MTV Movie Awards will air live on MTV on Sunday at 8 p.m. ET, with MTV News' "Coming Attractions" preshow kicking the evening off at 7:30 p.m. ET! Meanwhile, stay tuned to the MTV Movies Blog and MovieAwards.MTV.com.

Say what you will about the implausibility of Michael Bay movies, there's nothing funny about giant robots chasing innocent people around a college campus.

Ok, one thing. Or, rather, one person.

That would be Rainn Wilson, who will have a small role in "Transformers 2," as some kind of professor, "The Office" star revealed exclusively to MTV News during an MTV Sneak Peek Week screening of his new film "The Rocker."

"A professor that turns into a car that turns into a robot," he laughed. Read more...

Christina Applegate's die-hard fans know her as a dancer, singer, TV and movie actress, and acclaimed Broadway star. So, with a movie called "The Rocker" due in theaters this fall, they've been pummeling her with one question: Does she get to sing?

The flick is about a drummer, played by Rainn Wilson ("The Office"), who gets a chance at fame after many years and failed attempts banging the skins for musicians who went on to bigger things. As Robert “Fish” Fishman, Wilson becomes the drummer for his nephew’s high school band, A.D.D., and finally gets the chance to take on the life of a rock star. Read more...

It was rain and Rainn [Wilson] Saturday afternoon in Santa Monica, as even an unseasonable downpour couldn't dampen the spirits, or, for that matter, the Spirits -- as stars braved the weather to crown the best of independent cinema at the 2008 Independent Spirit Awards.

Hosted by "Office" star Rainn Wilson, the ceremony turned into a coronation as "Juno," the little-indie-that-could suddenly became the little indie that did, walking away with three awards including Best Feature, Best Female Lead (Ellen Page), and Best First Screenplay (Diablo Cody). Read more...

In a recent episode of "The Office," oddball Dwight revealed a habit of stashing weaponry around the workplace, including such items as a crossbow, blow darts and a long sword. Such weapon training may prove useful for Rainn Wilson as he prepares for his upcoming role in "Bonzai Shadowhands," a movie starring and being written by the fast-rising comedic actor.

Director Jason Reitman explains the flick as "the story of a reformed alcoholic ninja, and his relationship with a teenager." He continued, "I describe it as 'Midnight Cowboy' meets 'Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.'" But with more laughs, lest you worry that Wilson is suspending his comic forte to mount an Oscar campaign. "Every time I read pages of the script, it's just the funniest thing I've ever read," Reitman assured.

The "Thank You for Smoking" director, who features Wilson in a cameo for his new flick "Juno," was eager to elaborate on Wilson’s training: "I don't think he'll be changing his physique [for 'Shadowhands'], although he will be sharpening his ninja skills…he's going to have to do his own stunts."

Over the past 45 years, the legend of Pete Best has grown to the point where his name is shorthand for those who couldn't capitalize on a great opportunity. But when it came to the upcoming movie "The Rocker," the former Beatles drummer wasn't about to let it happen again.

"It's a variation on the Pete Best story, and he actually came to set one day and did a line in the movie," gushed Emma Stone, the "Superbad" actress who appears in the flick alongside Rainn Wilson and Christina Applegate. "I freaked out about it, because I'm a Beatles fanatic. I was very excited."

Now, fans of the Fab Four will be similarly thrilled when the so-called "Fifth Beatle" -- who was fired by John Lennon, Paul McCartney and George Harrison roughly a year before the group exploded -- shows up in "The Rocker" to get the last laugh. Read more...

Really, the best reason for this post is to show off Rainn Wilson's look in his upcoming film, "The Rocker." And yes, there's some movie news here too I suppose.

"I'm writing a movie for [director] Jason Reitman," the star of "The Office" told us. "It's called 'Bonzai Shadowhands' and I play a down and out alcoholic ninja," he said with a straight face. Wilson has handed in a first draft of the script and says he hopes to start shooting it next summer. Oh and he insists his obsession with ninjas is not sexual. Riiiiight.
