Jim Carrey Says He’s “Open” to Returning as Robotnik in Future Sonic Films
Many were surprised by Jim Carrey returning from soft retirement for his double role in Sonic the Hedgehog 3 as the villainous Dr. Robotnik and his even more villainous grandfather, Gerald Robotnik. And though some may have assumed that that would have been his final hurrah, as it turns out, the actor still may not be fully done with the Sonic franchise quite yet.
Speaking in an interview with Cinema Today (spotted by @sonicstadium on Twitter), Carrey said that he remains “open to the idea” of returning to once again play Dr. Ivo Robotnik in future Sonic the Hedgehog movies- depending, of course, on whether he’s interested in the ideas presented to him.
“I’m definitely open. I’m open to the idea,” he said. “Generally, they come to me with the next idea, and if I go, ‘that sounds fun’, then I’ll do it. I don’t feel locked to anything in life unless it’s something that interests me.”
“I certainly love this crew,” Carrey added. “I love this gang that makes these movies, and I love the fans. I think there’s a lot of really great energy around it.”
Sonic the Hedgehog 3 launched in theaters worldwide last month, and has enjoyed critical and commercia success since then. Shortly prior to its release, Sega and Paramount Pictures announced that a fourth Sonic movie had also been officially greenlit, and is due out in 2027.
