This year we'll see Steve Carell having some family fun in the Disney comedy Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day. And it turns out that he might have an affinity for family friendly comedies at the studio as he's just signed up for another one.

Though the title takes a cue from Swiss Family Robinson, the film is based on an original idea by David Reynolds (Oscar nominated co-writer of Finding Nemo) and Carell's Carousel Productions producing partners Charlie Hartsock and Vance DeGeneres. So what's it about? Well, plot details are vague "in order to protect the project's secrets," but the film will follow the father of a family (Carell) who takes his family from city life to island life. Could this be some kind of treasure adventure with a family? We're hoping...

We all knew that Steve Carell‘s departure from The Office would lead to a more substantial presence on the big screen, but the rate at which he’s attaching himself to projects is nevertheless surprising. The next few years alone will bring starring roles in The Dogs of Babel, Burt Wonderstone, Frank or Francis, Foxcatcher, and Conviction — more than plenty for someone who wants to keep themselves busy, but there’s at least one more to add to that list.
As Deadline reports, Universal has acquired Dave Barry and Alan Zweibel‘s novel, Lunatics, for him to star in. The forthcoming book — which the authors are adapting for the screen — revolves around “New Jersey soccer dads whose minor feud escalates to create worldwide consequences, and leave them running for their lives.” Scott Stuber and Pam Abdy will produce through Stuber Pictures; Carell, Vance DeGeneres, and Charlie Hartsock will do so by way of Carousel.
