Matt Jones, who plays meth-head Badger on AMC's flagship show, Breaking Bad, also starring Bryan Cranston, Aaron Paul and Anna Gunn, just signed on for the new NBC The Office spinoff, The Farm, which will star Rainn Wilson (pictured) as Dunder Mifflin's own Dwight Schrute.

Jones, whose acting credits, in addition to Breaking Bad, include Red State and NCIS, will reportedly portray Dwight's cousin, Zeke, according to Entertainment Weekly. The spinoff will follow Wilson's Dwight as he attempts to run his bed and breakfast / beet farm.

Other casting choices for the new program, which will pick up after The Office closes its doors forever following the upcoming ninth season, include Thomas Middleditch as Dwight's brother, Jeb, and Majandra Delfino as his sister, Fannie.
