Jim Carrey has one condition for returning as Dr. Robotnik in ‘Sonic the Hedgehog 4′

Tired of being in the media spotlight and not being able to enjoy his personal life, Jim Carrey made the difficult decision to partially retire from acting. The acclaimed performer, known for his roles in ‘The Truman Show’ and ‘The Mask’, had been away from the world of Hollywood for several years when he was offered the role of Dr. Robotnik in a live-action adaptation of the Sonic video games. His response was positive, and what began as a one-time collaboration ended up becoming a hugely successful franchise.

This holiday season, ‘Sonic the Hedgehog 3’ hit theaters around the world, with Carrey returning to bring the blue hedgehog’s nemesis to life. The movie was a box office smash, and a few days later, Paramount confirmed that the fourth installment was already in production. As a result, fans began to wonder if the actor would return to the cast, and fortunately, there is already an answer. In an interview with Cinema Today, Jim Carrey made it clear that he would be willing to reprise his role as Robotnik, as long as the project is attractive enough.

“I’m definitely open to it,” the artist said. “If I get the next idea, I’ll consider it, and if the content is interesting, I’ll come back as Robotnik. I never turn down a role unless I’m not interested.”

Carrey later added that he is thrilled to be working with the ‘Sonic’ movie team and loves the passion of the fans. “I love this crew, and it’s fun to make a movie with them, the passionate fans always respond favourably, and they help me out a lot by asking me things like, ‘How about this next?’ Sonic is a movie that we all make together,” the actor added.
