LOS ANGELES (TheWrap.com) - Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels are doubling down on dumbing down at the movies. At least, according to Peter Farrelly they are.

"Dumb and Dumber" co-writer and co-director Farrelly confirmed that Carrey and Daniels have signed on to reprise their roles as laugh-inducing nitwits Lloyd Christmas and Harry Dunne in a sequel to the 1994 comedy.

Farrelly made the reveal during Sunday's junket for the Farrelly Brothers' upcoming comedy "The Three Stooges," according to ComingSoon.net.

"We're getting set to shoot 'Dumb and Dumber 2' in September," Farrelly said. "It's the first sequel we've ever done and we've got Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels back."

The 1994 film chronicled a cross-country trek by well-intentioned but profoundly stupid pals Lloyd and Harry.

The movie spawned a 2003 prequel of sorts, "Dumb and Dumberer: When Harry Met Lloyd," starring Derek Richardson and Eric Christian Olsen as Harry and Lloyd, respectively.

Farrelly was quick to disavow the 2003 version during the "Three Stooges" junket. He added that Daniels and Carrey were both eager to do the sequel, but the latter was hampered by schedule conflicts.

"We did not do 'Dumb and Dumberer,'" Farrelly emphasized.

"That was a studio thing. So we've always wanted to do a sequel and finally Jim called up. Jeff always wanted to do it. We always wanted to do it. Jim was busy, but he called and said, 'We've got to do this thing again.' He had just watched 'Dumb and Dumber' and he said, 'This is the perfect sequel. Let's do it.'
I think they should have just left it alone..but it'll have to be better than the 03 sequel which was just awful aside from Bob Saget.
