20th Century Fox is in talks with Jim Carrey to possibly star in USED GUYS with Ben Stiller. Jay Roach will direct the sci-fi comedy.

The story is set in a world where women run the Earth. Men became extinct because they ingested an enhancement drink that proved fatal.

Carrey and Stiller would play clones rendered obsolete by superior models whose enhancements include better listening and lovemaking skills. The scorned clones make a run for it, bent on regaining their dignity by searching for a male nirvana known as Mantopia.

David Guion and Michael Handelman wrote the script. Ben Stiller, Jay Roach and Stuart Cornfeld will produce.
