Steve Carell has been recruited by Disney to lead a new live-action comedy movie.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Carell will also produce the project, titled Brooklyn Family Robinson.
Details about the plot are currently slim, but the actor is set to play a father who takes his family away from city life in New York to a fresh start on a tropical island.
The script is being written by David Reynolds, who co-wrote 2003's Finding Nemo.
Reynolds devised the story with Carousel Productions' Charlie Hartsock and Vance DeGeneres, who will serve as producers.
Carell will next appear in Foxcatcher, which opens on November 14 in the Us and on January 9, 2015 in the UK.
