The 2005 sleeper hit went on to gross more than $175 million worldwide and achieve #1 openings in 12 countries, followed by over $100 million in DVD sales in North America alone. The movie won an American Film Institute Award as one of its (10 Best) AFI Movies of the Year, among other honors.

He produced Glen Ficarra and John Requa’s Crazy, Stupid, Love, in which he starred with Ryan Gosling and Julianne Moore; Among his other popular movies are Jay Roach’s Dinner for Schmucks, opposite Paul Rudd; Shawn Levy’s Date Night, with Tina Fey; Peter Segal’s Get Smart, opposite Anne Hathaway and Alan Arkin; Peter Hedges’ Dan in Real Life, with Juliette Binoche and Emily Blunt; Tom Shadyac’s Bruce Almighty, opposite Jim Carrey, and Evan Almighty; Adam McKay’s Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy, with Will Ferrell; and, in voiceover, Jimmy Hayward and Steve Martino’s Horton Hears a Who! as well as Pierre Coffin and Chris Renaud’s Despicable Me. Production is under way on a sequel to the latter animated feature, with Mr. Carell again starring as Gru.
In 2011, he concluded his starring role in the acclaimed Americanized adaptation of Ricky Gervais’ celebrated television series The Office. Mr. Carell’s portrayal of Michael Scott earned him multiple Emmy Award nominations as well as a Golden Globe Award.
