Technically this image is new, however it looks like it occurs a second or two after this image here, which we got back in August. In this new image from JimCarreyOnline Jim Carrey and Ewan McGregor are actually going all ‘Brokeback Mountain‘ on us. The image is from the upcoming movie I Love You Phillip Morris, and while finding out what the movie was about I came across a French trailer which was released last week. Watch it below!

“I Love You Phillip Morris” tells the story of Steven Russell (Jim Carrey), a married conman who found himself in a Texan prison where he fell in love with Phillip Morris (Ewan McGregor). Steven Russell tried to escape from prison four times, coming up with more and more elaborate plans, including once faking his own death. Morris was eventually released but Russell landed over a hundred years behind bars because of his escape attempts.

Thanks to Jan for the tip.

Jim Carrey + Ewan McGregor = Prison Love?

Jim and Ewan were recently seen hanging out at a gay bar! No, they’re not trying to tell us something… they’re doing research. For a new movie. Seriously!

The movie is called I Love You Phillip Morris, and it follows a married father (Carrey) who is sent to prison and falls in love with a cellmate named Phillip Morris (McGregor). His love leads him to make several escape attempts.

IMDb is listing it as a Comedy/Drama. A dromedy about a gay prison affair? I’m SO there! It has no set release date yet, but is currently filming for release sometime in 2009…!
