Stanley Tucci Joins 'Julie And Julia' Cast

Julie and Julia
Stanley Tucci will reteam with his "The Devil Wears Prada" co-star Meryl Streep for Columbia Pictures' "Julie & Julia." Amy Adams also will star in the pic to be directed by Nora Ephron.

Film centers on a frustrated temp secretary (Adams) who embarks on a yearlong culinary quest to cook all 524 recipes in Julia Child's "Mastering the Art of French Cooking." She chronicles her trials and tribulations in a blog that catches on with the food crowd. Story also covers the Childs' years in Paris during the 1940s and '50s, when Paul was a foreign diplomat who was eventually investigated by Sen. Joseph McCarthy for alleged communist ties.
