Jim Carrey is known for many iconic roles, but is he also headed to Marvel now? Has he ever played or was rumored for an MCU movie role? Here’s all you need to know about his history with Marvel and superhero movies.
Was Jim Carrey in a Marvel movie?
No, Jim Carrey was not in a Marvel movie. He was rumored to play MODOK in Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, but that never came to fruition.
Back in 2021, rumors surrounding Jim Carrey’s potential role as MODOK in the Ant-Man threequel began to swirl around the internet. But none of them turned out to be true as Marvel transformed Darren Cross into MODOK.
Apart from the Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania rumor, Jim Carrey has no other history with the MCU. At the time of writing, he is not going to be a part of any upcoming Marvel movie either.
What superhero character did Jim Carrey play?
Jim Carrey is famous for playing The Mask. But besides that, he has been a part of a few other superhero movies portraying The Riddler in Batman Forever, and Colonel Stars and Stripes in Kick-Ass 2.
The Mask is a comic book protagonist that Jim Carrey is known to have played in 1994’s The Mask. But apart from the maniacal green-skinned superhero, he also played one of the protagonists in Kick-Ass 2, Colonel Stars and Stripes.
In 1995, fans saw him join DC’s Batman Forever as Edward Nygma, aka the Riddler. But in recent times, he has been the main antagonist in Sonic the Hedgehog. Even though the franchise is based on a video-game series, it could also fall under the superhero genre with Sonic’s speedster abilities and Carrey’s mad scientist persona of Doctor Ivo “Eggman” Robotnik.
