Chris Elliott is boarding Community.

The comedy legend has been cast as the bizarre founder of Greendale Community College, reports TV Line.



Elliott's guest appearance in Community will see his character Russell Borchert appear on the campus for the first time since a sex scandal wrecked his reputation.



The actor is best known for his work with David Letterman, the landmark comedy show Get a Life and his current Adult Swim show Eagleheart.

Community has lined up a string of impressive guest stars for its fifth season.

David Cross, Breaking Bad creaor Vince Gilligan, Tim Heidecker & Eric Wareheim, John Oliver, Walton Goggins and Jonathan Banks will all appear in upcoming episodes.

NBC premieres Community's new season on Thursday, January 2.
