12-YEAR-OLD TO TAKE ON ACE VENTURA
Chubby 12-year-old NANCY DREW star JOSH FLITTER is set to revive the ACE VENTURA: PET DETECTIVE franchise after taking over the role that helped turn JIM CARREY into a household name.

Flitter has signed to star in the third Ace Ventura movie, according to movie news website MovieHole.net.
The young actor will play the son of the original ace, who takes over the family business.
Director David Mickey Evans admits he let his own kids pick the project for him - after presenting them with a handful of scripts he was offered after making family baseball movies The Sandlot and The Final Season.
He told the website, "My kids run my career. After the Final Season got picked up for theatrical release, I had a bunch of offers and scripts on my desk. I asked my nine, 11, and 15 year olds what they wanted me to do.
"They said, 'Dad, you're doing Ace Ventura 3!.' I don't know if the fact that the film shoots in Orlando and that's where Disney World is, had anything to with their marching orders, but I suspect it did."
