Paul Giamatti and Amy Ryan are set to star in the leading role in writer-director Tom McCarthy's comedy-drama "Win Win." Melanie Lynskey "Up in the Air", Bobby Cannavale "The Station Agent" and Jeffrey Tambor "Arrested Development" also star in the movie.

McCarthy, who has written and directed both "The Visitor" and "The Station Agent," co-wrote the script with Joe Tiboni.

Movie centers on a struggling attorney (Giamatti) who moonlights as a high-school wrestling coach. All aspects of his complicated life are thrown up in the air when he becomes the legal guardian of a client whose grandson shows up on the doorstep.

Fox Searchlight and New York philanthropist Lisa Maria Falcone via Everest Entertainment, co-financed the movie.

Falcone is co-producing alongside Michael London's Groundswell Productions and Mary Jane Skalski. Everest's Tom Heller is executive producing.

Shooting is scheduled to begin March 15 in Gotham.
