Jim Carrey Could Go Under Cover
— Posted by Francisco
 Jim Carrey’s last big screen effort came in 2008′s Yes Man (Awesome comedy!). His next film due, I Love You Phillip Morris, has been stuck in the “hollywood phantom zone” for quite some time now. It could be possible that we won’t get any Carrey films in a while. Consequently, studios have been lining up with scripts and projects for him to choose and do from. Some of these are: Larry Charles comedy Pierre Pierre, the children’s book adaptation Mr. Popper’s Penguins, and a remake of the musical Damn Yankees. Now Summit Entertainment has entered into the picture with an enticing option. Collider reports: I love Jim Carrey; he’s one of my all-time favorite actors. I can totally see him doing this and nailing it. If done right, this could be another great comedy with a heart a la Liar Liar, Bruce Almighty and Yes Man. School of Rock comes to mind. Of all the projects he’s looking at, I think this one would be good for him. Also, I’m looking forward to seeing I Love You Phillip Morris. Whatever happened to that one? What do you guys think? Carrey in a youth cover band? Which is your favorite Jim Carrey film? This post was written by :

strange enough, i heard I love u Phillip Morris out on dvd in europe and asia, bootleged or not, i dunno
You can buy “I love you Philip Morris” in the UK on DVD & Blu-ray from shops and from the likes of Play.com
Carrey IS Funny and has a wide range of acting capabilities
My Favs: Ace Ventura (1st one) the sequel had some hilarious parts but as a whole, not as funny as the 1st time around
Dumb and Dumber (still funny today)
CableGuy (gets better w/ age)
Bruce Almighty (the good one)
YesMan (pretty good)
the other stuff was fun but, wont be in my Bluray collection any time soon
worthy mentions:
Man on the moon
Truman Show
Enternal Sunshine
I love you Philip Morris is really funny. You can find it if you look…
Hey, yeah, what happened to that movie? I saw previews for it… months ago… if not last year.
I guess the studio got cold feet about how audiences would respond to putting two top-draw actors in a gay pic. I mean, Ewan has played pretty explicit gay characters before… is it possible Carrey (or his agent) started to panic about the effect it could have on his core (stupid) audience?
Heh… just checked IMDB, and it’s been out in Kazakhstan since March. Listed as October 2010 for USA… Apparently the last country in the world to get it.
