Variety:

Jon Stewart looks to have found his next gig after staying off the grid since leaving “The Daily Show" in 2015 — and he’s bringing a familiar friend on board.
The former talk show host will direct “Irresistible," a political satire based on his original idea, sources tell Variety. Sources say Steve Carell is the top choice to star, though financing and scheduling needs to be worked out first.

I’m there. Rosewater was terribly overlooked, but a great debut from Stewart behind the camera.
