Singer-songwriter Josh Groban and Academy Award winning actress Marisa Tomei ("My Cousin Vinny," "In the Bedroom," "The Wrestler") have joined Annaleigh Tipton "America's Next Top Model," Emma Stone ("The House Bunny," "Zombieland"), Ryan Gosling ("Half Nelson," "Lars and the Real Girl") and Steve Carell in an untitled Carell's produced marital comedy feature.

The project, which is being set up at Warner Bros., tells of a father (presumably Carell) whose life unravels as he deals with spousal problems and tries to manage his relationship with his children.

Tomei will star as the first woman that Carell's character dates after he's been taught the art of meeting women by Gosling's character, and Groban plays the boyfriend of Stone's character.

John Requa and Glenn Ficarra "I Love You Phillip Morris" will direct from the script by Dan Fogelman ("Fred Claus," "Bolt").

Carell, through his Carousel banner, will co-produce with Denise Di Novi, while Charlie Hartsock and Vance DeGeneres will executive produce.
