Young Josh Flitter has signed to star in the third “Ace Ventura” movie, with David Mickey Evans (“The Sandlot”, “The Final Season”directing.
The Jim Carrey-less sequel sees the son (“Nancy Drew” star Flitter) of the oddball detective step into his father's shoes to take over the family business. Animals, Impersonations and Captain Stubing appearances ensue.
“Well, basically my kids run my career”, Evans exclusively told Moviehole. “After the Final Season got picked up by Sony/Yari for theatrical release, I had a bunch of offers and scripts on my desk. I asked my 9, 11, and 15 year olds what they wanted me to do. And they said, “Dad, you’re doing Ace Ventura 3!. I don’t know if the fact that the film shoots in Orlando (Disney World, Universal Orlando, etc etc…had anything to with their marching orders, but I suspect it did. Nonetheless, the challenge of trying to meet the expectation of a sequel to one of the funniest movies in the last 30 years appealed to me. Done deal. Cut. Print. Moving on! Done deal.
“…plus I really wanted to work with Jim Robinson and David Robinson at Morgan Creek. The opportunity to cross paths with their brand of creative support is rare and I wasn’t about to pass that up.”
Jeff Sank, Jason Heimberg and Justin Heimberg penned the screenplay.
I thought Hollywood learned their lesson from Evan Almighty.![]()
The only lesson that should be learned from Evan Almighty is that comedies should be low budget...period.
Cuba Gooding Jr is filling in for him in a sequel to Daddy Day Care.
Out of all the Jim Carrey movies you would think Universal would've setup a direct to DVD sequel of Liar, Liar. A chronic liar has to tell the truth for 24 hours. How easy is that to assemble, but no Hollywood comes up with Ace Ventura Jr., a prequel to Dumb and Dumber, and use the titles to try to attract movie goers with The Mask 2 and Evan Almighty.
