Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels are set to return for Dumb And Dumber 2, it has been confirmed.

Shooting for the follow-up to the hit 1994 comedy will start in September Co-director Peter Farrelly has revealed.

"We're getting set to shoot Dumb And Dumber 2 in September. It's the first sequel we’ve ever done and we've got Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels back,'' he told ComingSoon.net.

The prequel 'Dumb And Dumberer: When Harry Met Lloyd' was release in 2003, but it did not feature the original cast.

Farrelly added: "We did not do Dumb And Dumberer. That was a studio thing.

"So we've always wanted to do a sequel and Jim called up. Jeff always wanted to do it. We always wanted to do it. Jim was busy, but he called and said, 'We've got to do this thing again'. He had just watched Dumb And Dumber and he said, 'This is the perfect sequel. Let's do it."
