Jim Carrey, who initially announced his retirement after Sonic the Hedgehog 2, returned for Sonic the Hedgehog 3 not for the script, but for a more relatable reason: "I bought a lot of stuff and I needed the money, frankly." His honesty about financial necessity reflects a refreshing perspective on why actors sometimes decide to return to roles. Carrey's unique ability to play complex characters like Dr. Robotnik emphasizes his talent alongside his comedic flair.
Reflecting on his return, Carrey expressed joy in playing not just Dr. Robotnik but also his father, Professor Gerald Robotnik. This dual role allows him to explore new dimensions of his character within the Sonic universe. He noted, 'I came back to this universe because first of all, I get to play a genius, which is a bit of a stretch.' This portrayal adds depth to the narrative and connects to Shadow the Hedgehog, revealing layers within the franchise.
