Jon Heder set for 'Buddy Holly Is Alive'

We haven't heard much from Jon Heder recently, but don't worry, he's still in the acting biz. In fact, he's set to star in "Buddy Holly Is Alive and Well on Ganymede."

The film is based on Bradley Denton comic sci-fi novel, and Heder will play Oliver Vale, a geek whose life changes when Buddy Holly shows up everywhere on TV and announces Vale is the only one knowing why this is going on.

Variety reports Robert Rugan, who wrote the script, will direct the film. Heder hasn't done anything awesome since his glorious effort in "Napoleon Dynamite."

One of his more recent films was "Mama's Boy," and boy, did that one stink. He will also appear in Mark Steven Johnson's "When in Rome."
