Mary Lynn Rajskub by Joe Kohen/WireImage.com
Mary Lynn Rajskub is trading computer codes for cookbooks in the upcoming film Julie and Julia.
The 24 smarty joins Amy Adams and Meryl Streep in the story of a woman, Julie Powell, who takes a year off to cook and blog about all 524 recipes in Julia Child's famous gastronomic tome, Mastering the Art of French Cooking (from which most of my childhood meals were derived). Streep will play the star chef, whose life in the 1940s and '50s will also be depicted.
Rajskub, meanwhile, plays Helen, best friend of Powell (portrayed by Adams). If she's really a best friend, though, I'll expect her to get to taste of all 524 creations. Are you ready for Rajskub's big-screen role? Would you want to feast on a film about cooking and its related anecdotes? — Anna Dimond
