The reviews may have been, to put it kindly, mixed for** Dumb And Dumber To**, but production company Red Granite – which helped get the film released in the first place, is clearly looking to work with one of its stars again. Jim Carrey is considering starring in a comedy film called **Deep Cover.
There are no details about the potential script – which is still at the pitch stage – but the company has picked up the idea from writer Johnny Rosenthal and is currently dangling it in Carrey’s face hoping that he’ll bite and jump aboard as its star.
That title makes us think it will be something to do with espionage, and will give Carrey more chances to show off his comic chops.
Rosenthal has a few projects in development including an action comedy called Iron Jack and** The Three Tenors** (unsurprisingly, an opera comedy) and has worked on Bad Santa 2 for Dimension Films. As for Carrey, he’s not committed to anything at the moment, but is loosely attached to crime caper Ricky Stanicky.
