    Oct 2, 2020
    AceShowbiz – “Saturday Night Live” has finally revealed the first look at Jim Carrey as Joe Biden in its upcoming season 46. It has arrived in the form of a 18-second promo featuring Jim and Maya Rudolph, who reprises her role as Kamala Harris.
    The promo, which was released on Thursday, October 1, shows the process of the 58-year-old funnyman’s transformation into the Democratic presidential nominee. He can be seen getting his fake white hair placed on his head before joining Maya, who bears uncanny resemblance to the California Sen. as well as Joe’s running mate.
    Before the clip ends, the pair strike a pose with knowing looks as dramatic music plays in the background. Jim also puts on Biden’s signature Ray-Ban aviator shades while grinning widely. “Ladies and gentlemen… Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. #SNLPremiere,” “SNL” captions the video on its official Twitter account.

    Season 46 of the long-running NBC comedy sketch is set to premiere on Saturday, October 3 featuring Chris Rock as the host, marking his third time taking over the hosting duties on the show. Megan Thee Stallion, meanwhile, will be serving as musical guest.
    The season premiere will be the show’s first time back in Rockefeller Center’s legendary Studio 8H since March. The new season will feature new three cast members including Lauren Holt, Punkie Johnson and Andrew Dismukes with Ego Nwodim being promoted to main cast member. Alec Baldwin and Beck Bennett will also reprise Donald Trump and Mike Pence respectively.
    “There was some interest on his part. And then we responded, obviously, positively,” “SNL” creator and EP Lorne Michaels said of casting Jim for the role. “But it came down to discussions about what the take was. He and Colin Jost had a bunch of talks. He and I as well. He will give the part energy and strength… Hopefully it’s funny.”
    “I honestly don’t think of them as celebrity cameos. I think that’s the sort of New York Times approach to thinking about things,” Michaels said of the guest actors. “Alec Baldwin’s probably done the show 25 or 30 times. He’s just part of an extended group… It’s the same way with Maya — you saw what she brought to it. So, I don’t think of it that way.”

      The ‘Batman Forever’ actor is reportedly close to being signed on for the upcoming installment of ‘SNL’ to portray Donald Trump’s opponent in the Presidential election.
      Sep 17, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Jim Carrey is in talks to portray Donald Trump’s U.S. presidential opponent, Joe Biden, when sketch comedy show “Saturday Night Live” returns to TV for a 45th season next month (Oct20).
      Alec Baldwin will reprise his role as the President on the show while former “SNL” regular Maya Rudolph will be back as Biden’s running mate and potential vice president Kamala Harris, and the programme’s long-running executive producer, Lorne Michaels, reveals he’s close to landing Carrey as Barack Obama’s number two.
      “Maya Rudolph is coming back, and Alec will be back, and I think Jim Carrey is going to do Biden,” Lorne tells Vulture. “There was some interest on his part. And then we responded, obviously, positively. But it came down to discussions about what the take was. He and (SNL regular) Colin Jost had a bunch of talks. He and I as well. He will give the part energy and strength.”
      Biden was previously portrayed by Jason Sudeikis on the sketch show.
      “Saturday Night Live” will return to TV screens on 3 October (20).

      “I got out at NBC in the (San Fernando) Valley and I was like, ‘Gosh, I hope this is a lucky day for me’,” he tells “Lights Out” host David Spade. “I walked out of my car, closed the door, and I heard, ‘Don’t do it! Don’t jump!'”

      Jim Carrey Credits Trailer Backlash for Making 'Sonic the Hedgehog' Better

      by

      WENN/Instar

      The live-action adaptation of the SEGA console game has undergone changes at the titular character’s looks after its teaser, which was released in April, drew negative reactions from fans.
      Feb 15, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Jim Carrey is glad fans spoke out against the initial trailer for his new “Sonic the Hedgehog” movie.
      The teaser for the film, which stars Carrey as the computer-animated rodent’s nemesis, Dr. Ivo “Eggman” Robotnik, was released in April, but devotees of the original SEGA console game expressed dismay at the character’s looks, and the addition of human-like teeth in particular.
      Following the controversy, Sonic’s director Jeff Fowler, tweeted, “The message is loud and clear… you aren’t happy with the design & you want changes. It’s going to happen,” and a new, cartoonish version was revealed in a second trailer last November (2019).
      Speaking to Fox News, the star said of the controversy: “It turned out to be a co-op where everybody was in on the creation.”
      “I think everybody felt good about it ultimately because (director) Jeff Fowler (had) no ego involved at all. He just went, ‘These people grew up with it, and it’s important to them that we get it right.’ And I think it was just a much better movie because of it.”
      The “Bruce Almighty” actor added that he doesn’t create characters “based on what people are saying,” but that he also felt elements of the film weren’t “quite in the pocket” until being reworked.
      “It was my concern, as well,” he admitted. “(But) it turned out fantastic.”
      “Sonic the Hedgehog” is out now.
