JAKARTA - Jim Carrey only needs two years to retire from acting, because he will return to acting through the film Sonic 3. This film became his latest work after he acted as Dr. Robotics in the film Sonic the Hedgedog 2.

"That's right, I'm retiring. I'm serious," said Jim Carrey, launching Access Hollywood when promoting Sonic the Hedgedog 2.

"But it depends. If an angel says the script is written in gold ink and says that the story is very important for other people to see, I will continue the story but I will rest," he said again.

At that time, he felt calmer with his life without acting and found another hobby, namely painting. He felt that he had had enough of his acting career.

"I really like my quiet life and I really like painting on the canvas and I love spiritual life and this is something you guys haven't heard from celebrities say but I feel enough," Carrey said.

Two years later, Jim Carrey returns to play Dr. Robotics in Sonic 3. He realized the statement at that time was excessive so he revealed the reason for returning to acting in a short time.

"That night was too hyperbolic," said Jim Carrey.

"I came back to this world because I played the character of a genius and you know, I bought a lot of stuff and I honestly needed money," he said.

Sonic became his first major film in six years but in addition, Jim Carrey starred in several independent films such as Dark Crimes and The Bad Batch.

In addition, he also played the series Kidding before it was canceled and did not continue into the second season. He was also a guest on Saturday Night Live as Joe Biden in 2020.
