With a go-ahead from the WGA, Rainn Wilson will take on hosting duties for Film Independent's 2008 Spirit Awards.

Thanks to a waiver from the guild, Wilson, a Writers Guild of America member, will also help write jokes for the telecast. The Office star also briefly appears in multiple Spirit nominee Juno.

The ceremony will take place in a tent on the Santa Monica beach on Feb. 23, one day before the Oscars.

Sarah Silverman hosted last year.
