There’s a “Jetsons” movie at Warner Bros. Pictures that is coming together with Jim Carrey circling the lead role.

While no information on the storyline was immediately available, Colin Trevorrow, who last helmed “Jurassic World Dominion,” is in talks to direct and Joe Epstein to write the screenplay. 

The last “Jetsons” feature film was the 1990 animated “Jetsons: The Movie.” 

A live-action version of the familiar family animated property, which first aired in 1962, has been attempted numerous times over the years. 

The series was revived several times in the 1970s and ’80s, making the typical nuclear family that happens to live in outer space familiar to several generations of viewers.

The story revolved around George and Jane Jetson, their children Judy and Elroy and their dog Astro. 

The family lives in the space-age styled Orbit City and enjoys innovations that were considered wildly futuristic at the time, such as video chat, domestic robots and even flying cars that are part of or about to be part of daily life 60 years later.

Among the unfulfilled attempts to bring “The Jetsons” to screen were a 2003 version directed by Adam Shankman, a 2007 CGI version directed by Robert Rodriguez and a 2017 animated version.

Carrey most recently has appeared in “Sonic the Hedgehog” and its two follow-up installments. 

He has a long history of taking on iconic characters such as the Grinch in “How the Grinch Stole Christmas,” but has been seen less frequently onscreen in recent years.

Before “Jurassic World Dominion,” Trevorrow directed “The Book of Henry,” “Jurassic World” and the indie “Safety Not Guaranteed.”
