It was only a matter of time before someone redid the classic tale of Scrooge…and who better to take on another persona than Jim Carrey?

Later this fall, Disney’s version of A Christmas Carol will come to you in 3-D. The film written and directed by Robert Zemeckis (Beowulf) was shot entirely with performance capture technology.

Carrey, who plays the central character of Ebenezer Scrooge, also stars as the Ghost of Christmas Past, the Ghost of Christmas Present and the Ghost of Christmas Yet To Come. Meanwhile, Gary Oldman (The Dark Knight) will pull triple-duty as Bob Cratchit, Jacob Marley and Tiny Tim.

A Christmas Carol opens November 6, 2009.
