Philip Seymour Hoffman is set to voice one of two lead characters in Adam Elliot’s upcoming claymation project “Mary and Max,” according to the Hollywood Reporter.

Hoffman will lend his voice to Max, a 44-year-old man living in New York who exchanges letters with the lonely 8-year-old Mary (voiced by Toni Collette) in Melbourne.

The trade also says the film is narrated by Australian legend Barry Humphries and features a cameo from Eric Bana, among others.

“Mary and Max” marks the feature debut of Elliot and producer Melanie Coombs, who won an Oscar for their 2003 short flick “Harvie Krumpet.”

Hoffman recently starred in “Charlie Wilson’s War,” “The Savages” and “Before the Devil Knows You’re Dead.” He will next be seen in “Synecdoche, New York,” followed by “Doubt.”
