Take a Look at the "Almighty" Carell
by Scott Weinberg | May 08, 2006
Discuss Article
USA Today has a first-look peek at a biblical-looking Steve Carell from his upcoming comedy "Evan Almighty," which is sort of a sequel to "Bruce Almighty," but not really.

"For the first half of 'Evan Almighty', the star of NBC's 'The Office' (Thursdays, 9:30 ET/PT) cements his status as a rising movie lead as a preening politico who uproots his family to the D.C. area. Summoned by a prayer, God materializes before the self-absorbed Evan Baxter, insisting he build an ark before a great flood arrives. Though Evan initially resists, he is unable to contain his hair growth, a spurt of biblical if not pubescent proportions.



"There are all different lengths of hair and beards, and each has a code name," says Carell, shown sporting his final transformation as Noah in an exclusive first-look photo from the June 2007 release."

I still wish they'd use a different title. "Evan Above", "Evan's Gate", "Evan Can Wait", anything but "Evan Almighty"! :p
