Harrison Ford has signed on and Rachel McAdams is in talks to star in Paramount Pictures' comedy "Morning Glory."

Variety says J.J. Abrams will produce the project, while Roger Michell is on board to direct. Michell most recently directed the splendid "Venus," and his credits also include "Enduring Love" and "Notting Hill."

If cast, McAdams will star as a TV news producer who struggles to rescue a morning show by taking control of its difficult anchors. Ford is playing one of the two anchors.

The script was written by Aline Brosh McKenna, whose credits include "The Devil Wears Prada," "27 Dresses" and the upcoming "The Ivy Chronicles."

Ford was last seen in "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull." He will next star in "Crossing Over" by Wayne Kramer. As for McAdams, you will soon see her in "The Time Traveler's Wife," among other upcoming flicks.
