The project, to be directed by Sugar pair Ryan Fleck and Anna Boden, is based on Ned Vizzini's novel about a teenage boy who finds himself in a mental institution for adults.
The Hangover star Galifianakis is being eyed for one of the adult roles, while Roberts will play the love interest for the lead character, says The Hollywood Reporter.
It's Kind Of A Funny Story is expected to begin production this year.
