The Three Stooges Movie?

Hollywood always has to f*ck with the classics, huh? According to reports, MGM studios and the Farrelly Brothers are about to make a film adaption of "The Three Stooges" and they have made a determination for the cast. Playing Larry will be Sean Penn, Jim Carrey will be Curly, and Benicio Del Torro as Moe? Keep in mind that the movie will not be a biopic but a comedy. I can see Jim Carrey in the movie, I think it'll be a strech to imagine Sean Penn, a two-time Oscar winner, in a comedy. But Benecio Del Toro? I don't get it.
