Mr. Yes Man, Jim Carrey, is now the leading candidate to star in upcoming offbeat drama-comedy The Beaver for Anonymous Content.

The film will focus on the relationship between a man and a beaver puppet he wears on his arm, which he talks to and treats as a companion. Expect lots of trademark Carrey antics in the movie, which has been penned by Kyle Killen.

Directors are currently being sought for the project. Producers are aiming to start filming by this year.
