Jason Segel is venturing into serious territory by playing author David Foster Wallace in this biopic. Widely known for his 1996 novel Infinite Jest, Wallace suffered from depression and committed suicide at age 46 in 2008. The movie follows the author and Rolling Stone reporter David Lipsky (Jesse Eisenberg) during one of Wallace's promotional book tours. Lipsky ended up writing Although of Course You End Up Becoming Yourself: A Road Trip With David Foster Wallace, which inspired the movie.
