Dumb And Dumber 2 coming soon

"We're getting set to shoot Dumb And Dumber 2 in September," revealed Peter Farrelly. "It's the first sequel we've ever done and we've got Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels back."

Carrey
was thought to be in discussions to reprise his role as Lloyd Christmas
last summer, but since then, the project had gone a little quiet. Now,
production is expected to start by the end of the year, with both Carrey
and Daniels on board.

Meanwhile, Farrelly is keen to distance himself from the 2003 prequel Dumb And Dumberer, stressing that this new film will be the first true return to the characters made famous by the 1994 original.

"We did not do Dumb And Dumberer,'"
he says. "That was a studio thing. So we've always wanted to do a
sequel and finally Jim called up. Jeff always wanted to do it. We always
wanted to do it. Jim was busy, but he called and said, 'We've got to do
this thing again.' He had just watched Dumb And Dumber and he said, 'This is the perfect sequel. Let's do it.'"
