Cancer Summit for Young Adults for his "courage, irreverence and creativity in achieving meaningful and impactful change on behalf of the young adult cancer survivorship movement".[8]

In September 2011, it was reported that Reiser was working on an American version of the German comedy film Men...[9] That same month, it was also reported that Reiser was working on a film titled Jamaica, based on a vacation he took to Jamaica with his grandma at the age of 14.
