Last year, fans of Jim Carrey were excited by rumors that Ace Ventura 3 was being developed, and during this year’s Super Bowl, a new advert brought back his character from The Cable Guy. However, while plenty of old franchises are being revived right now, Carrey’s recent announcement that he is considering retiring put any returns to his biggest characters doubtful. Now, he has pretty much ruled out any return for him as Ace Ventura in the future, commenting that he has no old characters in mind that he wants to bring back.
Carrey is currently appearing for a second time as Dr. Robotnik in Sonic The Hedgehog 2. While it looks pretty likely that he will be back for another round as the crazed scientist in Sonic’s third outing, fans hoping for him to also be back on the big screen as characters like Ace Ventura will likely be disappointed as the actor feels that it has probably been too long to go back to them again.
