Jim Carrey Out! Paul Giamatti In
Filed under: Film Flickers > Jim Carrey
Months ago, we reported that Paul Giamatti was one of the possible names being tossed around to replace Sean Penn in the new Three Stooges movie by the Farrelly brothers after Penn decided to pull out and take some time off from acting.
Well, now it has been confirmed by director Peter Farrelly himself. Paul will be stepping into the role of Larry, helping to complete the trio of the icon stooges.
The final piece of the puzzle lies with finding the appropriate Curly. The role was once rumored to go to Jim Carey, but that is no longer the case.
Do U have any suggestions?

COLD SOULS IS A GREAT MOVIE!
Artie Lange!
He will be brilliant!!!!
he looks like a bum in philly i'd give change to.
Drew Carey would be make a good Curly.
Jason Segal (Think thats his name - from Forgetting Sarah Marshall and I Love you Man)
or, what about the guy who plays Dwight on the Office? His name is escaping me!
I would have liked to see Jim Broadbent in the role of Larry.
Curly? Robert DeNiro maybe?
No Jim Carey, no Sean Penn, no interest in seeing this movie.
yeah, i have a suggestion…drop this entire ridiculous project.
ALL the casting choices have been horrific. it's not even in production yet but it already has BOMB written all over it.
I just love him. Such a talent.
Re: INTIMIDATOR – ew, gross, he's talentless.
Yea. Steve Wilco! He's good at threatening people and he's bald!

No they got it all wrong let paul be Curly and Larry Sanders from Curb your enthusiam he has the head for it.Or of course Shia Lebouf he is very funny and could possibly pull it off. Just a thought.
Kevin James would be excellent for Curly.
Kevin James would make an excellent Curly.
