Joel McHale stars in "Community" on NBC as Jeff Winger, a fast-talkin' lawyer whose degree has been revoked.

On the big screen, McHale recently starred in "Spy Kids: All the Time in the World in 4D," as a spy-hunting reporter married to Jessica Alba's character, the stepmother to his kids. McHale also recently served as the host of the 2011 Independent Spirit Awards.

McHale recently landed a role opposite Mark Wahlberg and Mila Kunis in Seth MacFarlane's "Ted," which is a live-action tale of a boy and his teddy bear. McHale will play a charming but sleazy boss to Kunis's character. Other upcoming films include "What's Your Number?" opposite Anna Faris and "The Big Year" with Steve Martin, Jack Black and Owen Wilson.

Joel McHale is perhaps best known as the star of "The Soup," a weekly entertainment show that satirizes pop culture and current events. He also serves as a writer and producer on the show. His quick wit and sharp comedic timing have made "The Soup" a pop culture phenomenon and led to the success of "The Soup Presents" specials. He also performs his stand-up act around the country to sold-out audiences.

McHale was recently seen in Steven Soderbergh directed, Warner Independent dark, comedic thriller "The Informant" opposite Matt Damon. In the film, he plays an FBI agent working with agri-business insider Mark Whitacre (Damon) to stop a price-fixing scam. The film is based on Kurt Eichenwald's 2000 bestseller, "The Informant: A True Story."

Born in Rome, Italy and raised in Seattle, Washington, McHale became a cast member on Comedy Central's "Almost Live," a show from a group of Seattle-based performers that featured a mixture of skit comedy and stand-up. Following his run on "Almost Live," McHale completed the Actor's Training Master Program at The University of Washington. After moving to Los Angeles, he landed roles on "Will & Grace," "CSI: Miami" and, most recently, "Pushing Daisies." He also jumped onto the big screen with roles in "Spider-Man 2" and "Lords of Dogtown."

McHale currently lives in Los Angeles with his wife and his two sons.
