Jim Carrey already knows what it's like to play God – so now he's getting ready to play the Devil himself.
The Bruce Almighty star is teaming up with Jake Gyllenhaal for a movie version of the Tony-winning musical, Damn Yankees, according to Playbill.
In the film, which will be a more modern take on the '50s classic, Gyllenhaal will portray Joe Boyd, a Yankees fan so desperate to see his baseball team win that he sells his soul to Satan to help the Bronx Bombers take the pennant.

Funnyman Jim Carrey continues to speak out about a very serious issue – the best way to treat depression.
"There are a lot of different ways to skin a cat," the actor, 46, told PEOPLE at Wednesday's Yes Man premiere in L.A. "It's important to think on our own."
Carrey – who has long been open about his own battles with depression – says he's the happiest he's ever been thanks to vitamin supplements. Too often, he claims, people think anti-depressants are the only answer.

Jim Carrey says he's the happiest he's ever been – and credits a positive outlook and vitamins with helping him find contentment.
"I believe that everything that happens to you is the greatest thing that could ever happen to you," the Yes Man star, 46, told Larry King on Monday.
"What if ... you fall down a manhole?" asked King.
"Everything. Mugged in an alleyway, being hit by a brick in the face. That's how the universe works," Carrey answered.
The actor, who is dating actress Jenny McCarthy, says he overcame depression without medication.

Jim Carrey: Jenny's Son Taught Me How to Love
Originally posted 06/04/2008 04:30PM
Jim Carrey credits girlfriend Jenny McCarthy's son, Evan, for teaching him how to love.
As he led 8,500 people through the streets of Washington, D.C., Wednesday, hand-in-hand with his daughter, Jane, McCarthy and Evan, the actor told PEOPLE, "He taught me how to love. And without Evan I might never have seen the greatness of Jenny's spirit."
Carrey added to the families, lawmakers and other activists gathered to raise awareness about toxins in vaccines that McCarthy is "the source of all that is good" in his life.
That, he explained to PEOPLE, is how he ended up on the frontline of a political movement. "Jenny's friends would kind of hint around and say, 'Hey, it would be kind of cool if you got involved in this,' and I thought to myself, 'This is just so inevitable. This just can't not happen.' If you care about the planet and about children, you have to."

Jenny McCarthy loves boyfriend Jim Carrey for several reasons – but especially because he loves her.
"There are so many things," the actress, 35, told PEOPLE in Los Angeles Wednesday night at the Grey Goose-sponsored party for Chelsea Handler's new book, Are You There, Vodka? It's Me, Chelsea.
For starters, she cited Carrey's "capacity to love and to take on something that most men would completely run away from."
McCarthy, who revealed her 5-year-old son Evan's condition nearly a year ago on The View and published a book about their experiences, Louder Than Words: A Mother's Journey in Healing Autism, said of Carrey, 46: "He could have any 20-year-old perfect girl with perfect breasts, and he stays. He has really opened his heart and his life to us. I'll forever be grateful."
