Steve Carell is in talks to reprise his role as newscaster Evan Baxter for the sequel to 'Bruce Almighty'.
'Evan Almighty' would reportedly see Carell's character building an ark in preparation for a flood.
Empire online reports that Jim Carrey declined to make a sequel to 'Bruce Almighty' and the producers decided to base the movie on Carell's character instead.
Carrey and Jennifer Anniston aren't expected to reprise their roles in the movie, but Morgan is set to return as God.
Steve Carell's new film, 'The 40 Year Old Virgin', opens in Irish cinemas this Friday, 2 September.
