Daniels Confirms ‘Dumb & Dumber To’ Shoots September!

After original financiers Warner Bros. and New Line Cinema dropped their interest in a sequel to 1994 comedy smash hit DUMB & DUMBER, Universal teamed Red Granite Pictures swooped in to save the long-awaited (and gestating) project. A few weeks ago, The Farrelly Brothers tweeted to confirm a deal was done to bring Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels back for DUMB & DUMBER TO. Despite failing to hit their earlier comedic heights, the directing duo will return to helm a follow-up to their best film (although fans of KINGPIN and THERE’S SOMETHING ABOUT MARY may have something to say about that).

Jeff Daniels, who played the dim-witted Harry Dunne, confirmed, while promoting his superb drama series THE NEWSROOM on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, that filming will commence in September for a release set to mark the originals’ 20th Anniversary next year.
