Steve Carell, the new Jim Carrey / Will Ferrell, is building on the success of The 40 Year Old Virgin by announcing plans for yet another film at Universal, this time called The Juvenile, and an as-yet untitled comedy pitch of his own.

The Juvenile was written by Mark and Brian Gunn (who are also working on a Mighty Mouse screenplay!). The story will see Carrell play "the most Caucasian man in America", sent to a juvenile prison for a petty crime he committed as a child, and bullied by "11 year-old badasses".

High comic potential there - we'll keep you up to date with all the news about the new hardest working funnyman in Hollywood (he's also working on High T, **Get Smart, Over The Hedge, Evan Almighty, Dan in Real Life and Little Miss Sunshine) **as we get it.
