Ever had one of those days where you just wanted to chuck everything and move to Australia?

Well, Steve Carell knows exactly how you feel, which is why, according to Deadline, he's currently in negotiations to star in the upcoming adaptation of the popular children's book "Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day."

It might be a bad day for Alexander, but it's a great day for Carell fans.

"Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day," as most of you probably remember, is about a kid named Alexander who has a terrible, horrible, very bad ... well, you get the idea. Fed up with how crappy his day is, Alexander decides to move to Australia before being talked down by his mother.

Just who will play either Alexander or his mother is still up in the air, but with Carell now in talks to play the role of the dad for director Lisa Cholodenko ("The Kids Are All Right"), it's looking more and more likely that the adaptation of author Judith Viorst's 1972 classic will be coming together sooner rather than later.

And there's nothing horrible about that.
