Steve Carell Magician Comedy Lands Director
Hollywood Reporter:
New Line is finally conjuring up a director for its magician comedy Burt Wonderstone.
Charles McDougall is in talks to direct the picture, which has Steve Carell attached to star.
The project, originally set up in 2006, is set in the world of rival Las Vegas magicians. Carell is a more traditional magic man who is dethroned by a hip younger illusionist and must then find a way to rediscover his love for magic.
