It's a miracle — "Bruce Almighty" is being resurrected to become a holy trinity of comedy.
The 2003 box office hit will begat a sequel, and mark the return of Jim Carrey as the title character, according to Entertainment Weekly.
The comedy — which grossed nearly $500 million worldwide — would reunite Carrey with Jarrad Paul and Andrew Mogel, who penned his 2008 comedy, "Yes Man."
A spin-off to "Bruce" was released in 2007. "Evan Almighty" featured Steve Carell, who played a rival to Carrey in the original film, and was a special effects-laden box office disappointment of biblical proportions.
"Bruce Almighty," Carrey’s most successful film, also starred Jennifer Aniston and Morgan Freeman. It told the epic tale of a newsman who is given the powers of the Supreme Being after complaining He was an absentee Heavenly Father.
