The story follows Laura (Jennifer Garner), the wife of a former butter sculpting champion Bob (Ty Burrell) who tries to take the mantle from her husband only to be thwarted by a young adopted African American girl (Yara Shahidi), who has discovered that she has a natural talent for making art from out of butter.

The film, which lost potential director Craig Gillespie in favor of “She’s Out Of My League” director Jim Field Smith, would star Carrey as a Bill Clinton-esque figure in the political satire opposite his wife played by Garner. Hudson would be cast as the subject of Carrey’s extramarital activities.

“Butter,” whose writer Jason Miscallef received the third place spot for his script in the 2008 Black List, apparently centers around butter sculpting competitions in Iowa as an allegory for the state’s 2008 Clinton-Obama caucus.

Gillespie was originally reported as circling the project early in its development but its now been confirmed that Brit Jim Field Smith, who most recently directed “She’s Out Of My League,” will instead helm rookie Jason Micallef’s 2008 Black Listed script. The film centers on an adopted girl who learns of her uncanny talent to carve butter and finds herself dueling with the reigning annual butter-sculpting contest champion of her Midwestern hometown.

“Butter” tells the story of adopted girl who learns of her uncanny talent to carve butter. She then finds herself dueling with the reigning annual butter-sculpting contest champion of her Midwestern hometown. As weird as it sounds, the project sounds like it’s right up Gillespie’s alley. His debut feature “Lars And The Real Girl” was about a young man’s love affair with a blow-up doll while he has recently been helming the Diablo Cody-scribed Showtime series “United States of Tara,” which chronicles a mother’s struggle with odd multiple personalities.
