Rejoice people, another one of the best god damn comedies of all time is getting a sequel (after one to the ace Anchorman was announced last week), as co-director and writer Peter Farrelly confirmed a proper, Jim Carrey/Jeff Daniels led sequel to Dumb and Dumber.
Farrelly spoke to Comingsoon.net about the film and said, "We're getting set to shoot 'Dumb and Dumber 2' in September," he says. "It's the first sequel we've ever done and we've got Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels back." On the prequel, Dumb and Dumberer he said, "We did not do 'Dumb and Dumberer,'" he continues. "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.'"
I cannot fully articulate my utter glee about this. Granted, The Farrelly's haven't exactly been prolific, but their first film is a f**king stone cold classic and one of the most rewatchable flicks ever made. YEAH I SAID IT.
