Morgan Creek has hired Jeff Sank and brothers Jason and Justin Heimberg to write a third installment of the hit franchise
Ace Ventura, according to the Hollywood Reporter.
The two previous "Ventura" comedies -- 1994's "Ace Ventura: Pet Detective" and the following year's "Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls" -- grossed more than $180 million domestically and helped establish Jim Carrey as one of the highest-paid comedy actors in Hollywood.
The latest pet project is expected to center on the eccentric detective's son, who steps into his father's shoes to take over the family business.
