Oscar nominee Amy Adams and comedian Zach Galifianakis have signed on to appear in director John Carney's dramedy Town House for Fox 2000.

The story (based on Tish Cohen's debut novel) follows an agoraphobe, living off his inheritance from his rock star father, which includes both money and the title town house, which he shares with his teenage son. When the money starts to dry up, however, he's forced to come out of his shell, with the help of a friendly call girl.

Galifianakis starred in The Hangover, the biggest hit of the summer, and has since lined up several projects, including Due Date and Dinner for Schmucks, while Adams appeared in this year's Nora Ephron's cooking comedy Julie & Julia and the Ben Stiller comedy sequel Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian, with Leap Year and Darren Aronofsky's The Fighter on the horizon. Fox is hoping to film Town House in 2010.
