Do you think the Farrelly brothers have Jim Carrey's number in their speed dial? Well, if they don't, they should considering all the projects they seem to get that fit his comic style.

The Farrellys recently got the rights to "Nothing Up My Sleeve" (which is bound to go through a title revision...at least we hope so). The story is based on a down-on-his-luck magician who somehow acquires magical powers. The super magician first sees these new powers as a blessing, but comes to loathe after numerous comical attempts to control them.

Paging Jim Carrey, we've got a rabbit that's just waiting to join your animal repertoire...
