Better than money! Even better than IOUs!
Trying to get the Dumb And Dumber sequel into production has had more wrong turns than Lloyd and Harry trying to return a briefcase to Mary Samsonite Swanson.
But it’s FINALLY happening!!!
In just one week, Warner Bros. dropped the project, as we reported, and Universal Pictures picked it up like a hitchhiker waiting for the shaggin’ wagon to drive by.
Directors/writers the Farrelly brothers confirmed on Twitter:
IT"S OFFICIAL: Dumb and Dumber To is going into production with @RedGranitePics and @UniversalPics!!! #DumbTo P pic.twitter.com/uS8UIXSRj4

And actor Jeff Daniels tweeted in code:
DD2 is on. 🙂

No tweet yet from Jim Carrey, but we assume he’s busy getting his bowl cut on.
WE definitely are!!!
