Diedrich Bader was coming off a nine-year run on The Drew Carey Show when he joined the Napoleon Dynamite cast. As he told Collider, it's "still to this day, one of the two top scripts I've ever read, the other one being the script for Office Space." Since his one-day shoot as dojo guru Rex, who could teach "the strength of a grizzly, the reflexes of a puma, and the wisdom of a man," Bader has kept busy.
He's popped up on everything from Arrested Development to Curb Your Enthusiasm, and had a recurring part as bitter ex-aide Bill Ericsson on HBO's Veep. When he's not in front of the camera, he's providing voices for some of your favorite animated shows. He's lent his voice to the likes of Gravity Falls, Scooby-Doo, and Harley Quinn.
To top it all off, he starred as the lovable husband to Katy Mixon's character on ABC's American Housewife. He's also been involved in projects like Space Force and Better Things.
