The actor Jim Carrey was supposed to be enjoying retirement, according to him in several interviews in recent years.
However, he recently started walking the red carpets for the release of Sonic the Hedgehog 3, and he has a relatable reason for coming back to his role in the blockbuster series. Carey plays Dr. Robotnik in the Sonic series, and fans were happy he came back for the role.
Carey, who had declared that he was stepping back from acting roles to focus on other artistic pursuits, joked with an interviewer about what would make him come back to the screen.
Carey was refreshingly honest, if playful.
“I came back to this universe because, first of all, I get to play a genius. Which is a bit of a stretch...And, you know, it's just I bought a lot of stuff, and I need the money, frankly."
People appreciated his candor.
A lot of people said that he was probably joking.
Some said that money is the only reason Carrey would come out of retirement.
Others thought this was an easy answer.
Sonic the Hedgehog 3 is currently playing in theaters.
