In the film, Carell would star as a guy who wants out of a marriage to an overbearing woman. Too timid to do anything about it, he hires a legendary Lothario to woo his wife so she’ll fall in love and want a divorce. The film is based off the Argentinian film UN NOVIO PARA MI MUJER, which was that country’s biggest hit of that year.
While it may seem like Carell has a lot of projects in the works, remember that he’s leaving “The Office” at the end of this season and will have much more time to work on films. He’s got CRAZY, STUPID, LOVE set for release later this year and is attached to no less than eight other films.
