If you know Mr. Sudeikis, 41, from his decade as a writer and performer on "Saturday Night Live," you may see him as synonymous with the boisterous, ludicrously self-absorbed characters he played there; or in films like "Horrible Bosses" or "We're the Millers"; or on Fox's "Son of Zorn," providing the voice of a cartoon barbarian living in a flesh-and-blood world.
