Adam Scott has crafted a truly diverse and distinguished career. Though he began primarily as a dramatic actor, he has displayed great versatility and depth and built an equally impressive comedy resume. No matter the medium—film, television and theater —he continues to earn rave reviews.
Scott also stars in "The Vicious Kind," a dramedy about a man who becomes obsessed with the girlfriend (Brittany Snow) that his brother brings home for Thanksgiving. Executive produced by Neil Labute, the latter film premiered at the Sundance Film Festival this year and has since won Best Picture at the 2009 New Orleans Film Festival.

He also won Best Performance at the 2009 Sidewalk Film Festival and Best Actor at the 2009 Strasbourg Film Festival.

Additionally, Scott has the lead role opposite Elisabeth Shue, Ving Rhames, and Richard Dreyfuss in "Piranha 3D." The film is produced by The Weinstein Company and directed by the acclaimed director Alex Aja.

Reilly in the blockbuster comedy "Step Brothers" for Columbia Pictures.

The Washington Post called Scott's performance "magnificently smarmy" while The New York Post said Scott's turn was "a hilarious foil...not just a tool, but a power tool."
