Mark Ruffalo dropped out of the dramatic feature film, Greenburg, and will be replaced by Ben Stiller.

It is unclear why Ruffalo -- whose brother, Scott Ruffalo, passed away late Monday from a self-inflicted gun shot wound to the head -- backed out of the project.

Amy Adams was also set to star opposite Ruffalo, but she is said to have fallen off as well. Talks are being held with a number of other actresses.

Get a sneak peak of this season's movie lineup.

The film, written and directed by Noah Baumbach and scheduled for release in 2010, would mark a dramatic shift for Stiller. The project is expected to focus on the intimacies of relationships in a similar manner of other Baumbach films.

    So sad, you know this should be a wake up call to everyone. You never know when a family member could be long gone, life is truly short. Appreciate them while they are here. I lost my brother last year, and I am so glad that I had a great relationship with him, I hope Mark had a good relationship with his brother.
