Stanley Tucci could be teaming up with Harry Potter star Emma Watson in drama Your Voice In My Head.

The Oscar nominated star is the preferred choice of director David Yates for the role.

Emma plays a suicidal teenager who turns to a terminally ill psychiatrist for help the part Stanley is up for.

He is the preferred choice of director even though George Clooney and Tom Hanks have expressed an interest in the part.

The drama is based on the memoirs of Emma Forrest and the film is still in the early development stage.

51-year-old Stanley, who received an Oscar nomination for The Lovely Bones, has two new roles coming up. He next stars in Jack The Giant Killer alongside Nicholas Hoult and Ian McShane, then Gambit with Colin Firth and Cameron Diaz.
