After years of trying, directors Bobby and Peter Farrelly have finally filmed their dream project, The Three Stooges, and are now looking for what to do next. According to Deadline, after years of hinting and mulling it over, they are setting their sights on another long gestating project, a sequel to Dumb and Dumber.
The brothers hope to reunite original stars Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels, and have already hired Sex Drive scribes Sean Anders an John Morris to pen the screenplay. The Farrellys plan to direct the film themselves.
The original, which was released back in 1994, could have been given a sequel earlier, but the studio got fed up with waiting and decided to cash in with a cheap knock-off featuring look-alike actors instead, releasing the prequel Dumb and Dumberer: When Harry Met Lloyd, in 2003.
There is no set start date for Dumb and Dumber 2, but it may well be Bobby and Peter Farrelly’s next directorial effort.

Hollywood seems to have a theory that if they just keep putting Paul Walker in movies, one day audiences will want to see him in something that doesn’t have the words ‘Fast’ or ‘Furious’ in the title. He’s now in talks to star in Brick Mansions, EuropaCorp’s American remake of the action-thriller District 13, according to 
Once you get established, it’s pretty much a law of Hollywood stardom that you start producing, as it gives you more control over projects and often a better payday. Now it’s Anne Hathaway’s turn to turn producer as she’s just closed a deal to star in and produce Puzzler for Paramount Pictures, according to 
Dylan McDermott has always been a bit of an ‘always the bridesmaid’ type actor, and while he’s currently taking the lead in the new US TV show American Horror Story, he’s also lined up one of his more usual supporting roles in Dog Fight for Warner Bros.
We’ve known for quite a while that Quentin Tarantino’s Django Unchained would be about a slave breaking free and going to rescue his wife, but we haven’t know who that wife would be. However, now 
Lynne Ramsay may have only made three films in 12 years, but each one has been met with critical acclaim. Ratcatcher, Morvern Callar and We Need To Talk About Kevin were all very indie efforts, dealing with tough but very human subjects.
Steve McQueen’s Shame is causing a bit of a fuss in the US at the moment, as it’s just been given the rarely used adult rating NC-17 (meaning nobody under 17 can watch the film). Normally if that happens – which is nearly always due to sexual content – the distributor decides to release it without a rating, but apparently Fox Searchlight is embracing the rating in the hope it can change attitudes to it (currently it’s treated as if the film must be pornographic, many cinemas won’t even think about screening it and some newspapers won’t ever take ads for NC-17 rated movies).
Universal Pictures has had a rocky few years with more flops than successes. However one bright spot has been the Bourne franchise, and it seems they’re hoping lightning will strike twice as they’re lining up another Robert Ludlum adaptation, hiring screenwriter John Hlavin to write The Janson Directive.
Back in March 2010, Summit Entertainment snapped up David Guggenheim’s (Safe House) script, The Puzzle Palace, which at the time had quite a lot of buzz around Hollywood. However it’s taken them until now to move forward, with
