Jim Carrey is getting all gay-ed up to act in I Love You Phillip Morris, and this is what we know about it: Based on a book by Houston Chronicle crime reporter Steve McVicker, the fact-based film casts Carrey as Steven Russell, a married father whose exploits landed him in the Texas criminal justice system. He fell madly in love with his cellmate, who eventually was set free, which led Russell to escape from Texas prisons four times.

Jim seems to be jumping right into the role in Florida right now, if these set pics are any indication.
