Now, starring as Dr. Robotnik in the adventure-comedy movie, Sonic the Hedgehog, Jim explained how he masters his mannerisms and gestures.
Speaking to Capital Breakfast with Roman Kemp, Jim Carrey said "Basically, I shoot for the adults, and I've got a smile in my heart for the kids."
Jim explained - in detail - about one scene which saw his character, Dr. Robotnik, dancing as he battled against Sonic.
Explaining how he was allowed to do whatever he wanted on set, and how he even paid homage to Dick Van Dyke, where he danced about "headless".
