Filming of Ripley in early 2008

At a recent press call for "The Number 23" Jim Carrey finally spoke out about the delay on "Ripley's Believe it or Not".
"The project is back on", "It�s going to be wonderful," Jim said. "It�s just an incredible world to open up. He was a very much the champion of the underdog and people who were a little bit different and freakish."
Also known as quite a fashionable man, with plenty of lovely ladies on his arm, the film may address Ripley's romantic side too. "He was about celebrating life. He was about proving its special-ness."
Regarding the question mark over the film's ever changing financial status Jim clarified his position.
"Financing never went away. We just got kind of close to going into production and I just felt like the script wasn't quite where it could have been. I had a lot of ideas that would have facilitated a change in plan, a change of approach to the production of it so I just thought it could be more than it was."
Filming for Ripley's is expected to begin late 2007 early 2008.
