Ice Cube is in talks to take on a role originally played by Cary Grant in Revolution Studios' remake of "Mr. Blandings Builds His Dream House," Variety reports. Steve Carr, the director of "Next Friday," which also starred Ice Cube, will helm the project. The original film starred Grant and Myrna Loy as a couple who buy a fixer-upper in the suburbs, which turns out to be a difficult project. Cube stars in "Are We There Yet?" and the forthcoming "XXX: State of the Union."
