Jim Carrey and Jake Gyllenhaal are teaming up for a big-screen version of Broadway’s baseball musical Damn Yankees.
Stage star-turned-filmmaker Todd Graff is set to direct the movie, which will be produced by Craig Zadan and Neil Meron — the men behind Oscar-winning film Chicago.
Graff will adapt Lowell Ganz and Babaloo Mandel‘s screenplay.
