Carell Finds Romance In 'Office,' 'Real Life'

Comedy Star Does Double Duty On Big, Small Screens

Monday, October 1, 2007

Steve Carell's new romantic comedy-drama "Dan in Real Life" won't be in theaters until the end of the month, but in the in meantime, the sitcom star is plenty busy in "The Office" -- as his character Michael Scott's relationship with former boss Jan Levinson (Melora Hardin) is back on track.

In an @ The Movies interview for "Dan" Sunday, Carell revealed a bit of what fans expect, romance-wise, for the "Office" workers this season, Michael included.

"Jan has moved into Michael's condo, so they're cohabitating. But I think there's a rocky road ahead," Carell said. "There are a lot of interesting relationship twists and turns this season. It's going to be good."

In the series finale this past spring, Jan wins her man back by getting a new set of breast implants. But what kind of implants can the empty-headed Michael get to impress her?

"Michael needs an implant of awareness if anything," Carell deadpanned.

Meanwhile, on the big screen, Carell stars as Dan in "Dan in Real Life" as a dejected widower and advice columnist who suddenly finds a romantic spark with a woman (Juliette Binoche) at bookstore while vacationing in his hometown. The two unexpectedly meet again a short time later -- at his parents' house -- where she is introduced as his brother's (Dane Cook) girlfriend.

"Dan in Real Life" opens in theaters nationwide Oct. 26.

Check back later this month for a full interview with Steve Carell discussing "Dan in Real Life".
