Instead,Evan Almightyhit theaters in 2007, ending the franchise with a box office bomb.
Based on what we know about the Carrey pitch, things might have gone very differently.
Unfortunately, it just wasn’t meant to be.

Bruce Almightyis available to watch on Hulu.
Still, since Carrey was reportedly willing to return forBrucifer, it seems this sequel was among those exceptions.
We can only guess whyBruce Almighty 2was only brought to Universal afterEvan Almighty.
Bruce Almighty is a 2003 comedy film directed by Tom Shadyac, featuring Jim Carrey as Bruce Nolan, a discontented television reporter who challenges God’s competence. Morgan Freeman portrays God, who endows Bruce with divine powers to teach him a lesson. Jennifer Aniston co-stars as Bruce’s girlfriend, Grace. The film explores themes of responsibility and human frailty through a humorous and fantastical narrative.
Perhaps Carrey wasn’t as gung-ho for the project as Koren and O’Keefe implied.
Of course, Universal’s choice of sequel didn’t work out in the end.
Evan Almightycouldn’t have been more different from Koren and O’Keefe’s originalBruce Almighty2pitch.
Unfortunately, we can’t change the decisions of those who madeEvan Almightyhappen rather thanBrucifer.
Still,I have to wonder what could have been.
