Leoni in talks on new Carrey movie

'Jurassic Park III' star Téa Leoni is in talks to replace Cameron Diaz in the new Jim Carrey movie 'Fun with Dick and Jane'.

The film is a remake of the 1970s comedy starring George Segal and Jane Fonda, and the Hollywood Reporter says that shooting will begin later this summer.

The original tells the story of a couple who become robbers to support their lifestyle; the remake has Carrey as a corporate executive who finds himself unemployed and turns to crime.

Leoni will next be seen on Irish cinema screens in the comedy 'Spanglish'. It is due to open in February.
