Jim Carrey To Star In Former James Franco Project & Black List Approved Comedy 'Ricky Stanicky'
Believe it or not, but James Franco doesn't always do everything he winds up committed to, and a couple years back you might recall he signed up star in "Ricky Stanicky."

On paper, “The Incredible Burt Wonderstone” sounds like a no-brainer. A magician send-up starring Steve Carell, Jim Carrey and Steve Buscemi? Where do I sign up, right?
