CANNES (Hollywood Reporter) - Mark Ruffalo and Amy Adams are attached to star in writer-director Noah Baumbach's next feature.

Plot details are being under wraps for "Greenburg," which is said to be a relationship comedy-drama. United Talent Agency is shopping the project in Cannes and financing is being assembled. While no timetable is set for principal photography, producer Scott Rudin is aiming to shoot this year.

Rudin produced "Margot at the Wedding," Baumbach's 2007 follow-up to his breakthrough drama "The Squid and the Whale."

Adams was recently in theaters with the Disney hit "Enchanted," while Ruffalo stars in "Blindness," which had its world premiere as the opening-night movie at the Cannes Film Festival last week.
