Amazingly enough, this isn’t a sequel to The Birdcage.

It’s actually Jim Carrey and Rodrigo Santoro shooting scenes for I Love You Phillip Morris.

The movie is based on a novel about a married father who gets sentenced to three years in prison. He ends up falling in love with his cellmate, played by Ewan McGregor. When his cellmate gets released, Jim’s character escapes from prison three times in order to be with him.

Naturally.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Leslie Mann will be joining Jim Carrey and Ewan McGregor in the black comedy I Love You Phillip Morris.

The movie follows a married father (Carrey) who is sent to prison and falls in love with a cellmate named Phillip Morris. Naturally. This love leads him to make several escape attempts. Mann will play Carrey’s wife.

Mann, who is married to director Judd Apatow, will next be seen in Seventeen Again opposite Zac Efron.

Jim Carrey has found the man with whom he’ll soon fall in love: Ewan McGregor.

McGregor has signed on as Carrey’s romantic lead- seriously! - in I Love You Phillip Morris. The film is described as a “dark comedy” that is based on a true story (and a book by Steve McVicker), that traces the plight of Texas convict Steven Russell, a married father who fell in love with his cellmate.

Here’s how Variety explains the premise:

[Russell's] love for Morris motivated his escape from prisons four times, once by using a green pen and bucket of water to change his prison outfit into what appeared to be surgical scrubs, another time by faking his death from AIDS and signing his own death certificate. Morris eventually got out, but Russell’s escapades got him a 144-year sentence.

Carrey and McGregor will start working on the movie this spring.
