…Rudd will be playing Leslie Knope's (Amy Poehler) political rival as the race for city council heats up!

We've been waiting for news on just who will be Knope's political foe, and we could not love this casting more. An insider tells Vulture that Rudd filmed his scenes in late December, and it's possible he'll be doing more than one episode. Well, we certainly hope so.

Also cast for a multi-episode arc is former Free Agent (RIP) star Kathryn Hahn. She'll be part of Rudd's political team going up against Leslie. TVLine.com first reported the casting.

NBC has yet to comment on Rudd's role (NBC and E! are both part of the NBC Universal family).

P.Rex fans, do you love this pairing or what?
