Steve Carell is going out on a limb and hoping a beaver movie will be better than this crap. Carell will reportedly play a guy who walks around with a beaver puppet on his hand. Kind of like this we guess. The script, cleverly titled, The Beaver is apparently creating a lot of buzz in the industry and Carell has already attached himself to the project.

Anonymous Content has picked up the script, but wants to wait until a director is attached before they start shopping it to studios. The script is described as a whimsical story somewhere between Being John Malkovich and Lars and the Real Girl.
