Anonymous Content has picked up Kyle Killen’s debut spec script “The Beaver” and has attached Steve Carell to play the lead says The Hollywood Reporter.
The fable follows a man who walks around with a beaver puppet on his hand, treating it as something close to a human creature with human feelings.
A director is currently being sought for the project (Jay Roach was previously circling the project) which apparently has a tone similar to “Being John Malkovich” and “Lars and the Real Girl”.
