Galifianakis, Adams are out on the 'Town'

By Adnan Tezer Oct 28, 2009, 19:19 GMT

The Fox 2000 dramedy "Town House" may be getting closer to a production start.

According to Variety, director John Carney came aboard the project in July 2007, but the writers strike later that year put the project on hold.

Zach Galifianakis and Amy Adams are now in talks to star in the film, produced by Ridley and Tony Scott through their Fox-based Scott Free production company.

The film is loosely based on Tish Cohen's debut novel of the same name. The story centers on an agoraphobic man, who lives with his teenage son in a Boston townhouse that he inherited from his rock star father. When the royalties from his father's work start to dwindle; the man is forced to come to terms with his life. A call girl later becomes an integral part of his life.

Doug Wright and Carney adapted the screenplay from the novel.

Fox 2000 is hoping to begin production next summer.
