LOS ANGELES - Jim Carrey has signed on at Creative Artists Agency (CAA), a week after he triggered a Hollywood feeding frenzy when he fired his longtime handlers at the United Talent Ageency (UTA).
The move to CAA is not a surprise, since the firm has aggressively bolstered its comedy ranks in the last year with the additions of actor Will Ferrell and directors Tom Shadyac, Todd Phillips and Jay Roach.
Carrey ended his 15-year association with UTA after a tough summer. Two $100 million-plus productions that he was attached to -- Fox's "Used Guys" and Paramount "Ripley's Believe It or Not!" -- were shut down because of escalating costs. His recent signings have been for modestly budgeted productions, including Fox's computer-animated "Horton Hears a Who!" and arthouse banner Focus Features "A Little Game Without Consequence," co-starring Cameron Diaz.
