Ron Livingston has joined the table for the Jay Roach-helmed comedy "Dinner for Schmucks."

The film, which stars Steve Carell and Paul Rudd, is being co-financed by DreamWorks, Spyglass and Paramount.

Pic is an adaptation of the Francis Veber-helmed French film "Le dinner de cons," in which a group of bourgeois friends regularly invite the biggest schmucks to dinner to ridicule them. Livingston's recent credits include New Line's "The Time Traveler's Wife" and the indie "Holly."

Livingston is repped by UTA and Thruline Entertainment.
