"While Cage’s Saturn Films’ ‘Voodoo Child’, written by John Collee, is under development, Carrey’s JC 23 Entertainment will roll out ‘O’Gunn’ with writers Ed Cannistraci and Fred Seton"

yeah i was wondering about that too............JC23 entertainment seems to have the options on it though..........

Carrey is planning to star in O’Gunn, which is being scripted by Ed Cannistraci and Fred Seton. Dan Eldon Project tells the story of the renowned British photo-journalist who was killed in Africa.

Interesting, not sure what it is.

Ed and Fred are also the screenwriters on Jim's upcoming movie - "Pierre Pierre".

Maybe this IS the 'Pierre, Pierre' project with a new name? Don't know what to think, there's so little information.

It is a different movie. I think it maybe is this project Variety had an article about last month:

Does anybody even know what it's about???

Nope, that's wrong. That part of the text is not about "O'gunn", it's about the Dan Eldon project through the company of Julia Roberts. O'gunn seems to be a comedy.

..............oops

you're right!!!........lol........that will teach me to read stuff properly.........lol................
lol.....basically we have no idea what o'gunn is about..............

lol..........but folk shouldn't get excited until it's officially confirmed......Jim's always optioning screenplays which never get made......it's the nature of the business........you option a story to prevent other folk getting their mitts on it, then you decide whether to go for it or cut it loose..........

finally some information............

Spec script sale: "O'Gunn"
As part of its PR at Cannes, Reliance Entertainment announced the purchase of the comedy spec script "O'Gunn" from writers Ed Cannistraci and Fred Seton:

Jim Carrey is attached to star, and his company will produce. Carrey will play a psychopathic Scottish cop who follows his nemesis to America to attempt to prevent a disastrous crime.

Script sold for $750K against 1.5M. Writers are repped by Dan Aloni and Greg McKnight (CAA), managed by Category 5 Entertainment, and their attorney is Jeff Frankel.

Duo sold the spec script "Pierre Pierre" in March 2008 for $1M, also with Jim Carrey attached.

????? WTF??? Jim playing a Scotsman???

.........well Jim you'd better get your box sets of Taggart and Rebus then........you're gonna need all the help you can get!......
