Those where the days when robbing people was fun folks.
And apparently Cameron Diaz could find herself having
some fun with Jim Carrey.
Although no offer is yet on the table and serious
discussions have therefore not begun, Diaz has vaulted
to the top of the list under consideration to star
opposite Carrey in the title roles of Columbia Pictures'
upcoming 'Fun With Dick and Jane.' In other words,
this is virtually a non-story, but it's a slow day.
If Diaz sparks to the idea, she could find herself
playing half of an economically distressed married
couple that resort to a life of crime in the remake
of the 1977 comedy that starred George Segal and Jane
Fonda.
Barry Sonnenfeld is on tap to direct the project,
which Brian Grazer will produce.
Diaz is, of course, no stranger to Columbia, which
produced her next feature, 'Charlie's Angels: Full
Throttle', which Sony releases June 27. Nor is she
a stranger to Carrey, as she first made her mark in
Carrey's 1994 feature 'The Mask.'
