[jimliker]

But the 40-Year-Old Virgin actor promised he's no plans to "upstage" Jim Carrey, who starred in the original.

I love Steve! He's so funny in his own right and that was so sweet of him to say that about Jim, now I love him even more if that's possible. He really is funny though. I love him on The Office. If you guys don't watch that show you should. It's hilarious and Steve is a riot on there. He plays the loser part so well, but still makes the character lovable.

I admit wasn't thrilled when I heard they were making a sequel to my all time favorite Jim movie. But if they had to do it, I'm glad they got Steve. I do think he'll do it justice. No, it probably won't be as good as Bruce, but I don't think it will be terrible either like I first thought it would be, at least not with Steve on board and Morgan Freeman and Tom Shadyac too. I have faith that they won't wreck the movie. But in my heart Bruce will still always be number 1. But I wish Steve the best! He's is great but he's got some mighty hard shoes to fill. But of course we all know that.

Here is something more that Steve said about Jim Carrey


Question: Are you afraid that people think or call you a cheap Jim Carrey?

Carell: I love it. No, I think that is a huge compliment. To even be mentioned in the same sentence with him, yeah that's a huge compliment to me. I think he's great, I've enjoyed all of his movies. I was telling somebody I was living in Chicago and I was there maybe a day after the original 'Ace Ventura' opened and it was before it had really caught on and people started catching on to him as a movie star I saw it in the day. There might have been 4 people in the theatre, a large theater. From the opening credit sequence, we were howling. I remember the guy in front of my turning around and looking at me and saying, 'I know, I can't believe it.' Like we had found this thing. The four of us were in a little club together and we were witnessing something. To even have been in 'Bruce Almighty' and to have been in scenes with him was a real thrill and honor for me. Even if I am unfavorably compared to Jim Carrey I take that as a compliment.
