This morning brought us our first Sonic the Hedgehog 3 teaser trailer, and with it, indications that Jim Carrey will return as the nefarious Dr. Robotnik.
Paramount Pictures dropped the twenty-second tease this morning which showcased the Sonic 3 logo alongside confirmation of the movie's December 2024 release date (https://www.destructoid.com/sonic-the-hedgehog-3-movie-release-date-december-2024/). In the background audio of the clip, you can hear Jim Carrey's distinct laughter as the iconic Sonic villain.

You don't have to merely go on Carrey's Doctor Eggman laugh as proof of his return. Variety (https://variety.com/2024/film/news/jim-carrey-returning-sonic-the-hedgehog-3-dr-robotnik-1235894927/?sub_action=logged_in) also confirmed the news this morning.
Carrey, one of the most prolific comedic actors of all time, revealed in 2022 that he would be retiring from acting. Speaking to Access Hollywood (https://www.accessonline.com/videos/jim-carrey-says-hes-retiring-and-feels-like-hes-done-enough-i-like-my-quiet-life), Carrey stated "I?m retiring. Yeah, probably. I?m being fairly serious."
He went on to note that he likes "my quiet life." Carrey said, "If the angels bring some sort of script that?s written in gold ink that says to me that it?s going to be really important for people to see, I might continue down the road, but I?m taking a break.?
Carrey's quote came out shortly before Sonic the Hedgehog 2 went on to be wildly successful (https://www.destructoid.com/sonic-the-hedgehog-2-box-office-smash-paramount-sega-biggest-opening/) at the box office. So while the Sonic the Hedgehog 3 script likely isn't "written in gold ink," Carrey's paycheck to return as Dr. Robotnik just may be.
You won't have to wait until December to get your Sonic movie universe fix, though. Knuckles (https://www.destructoid.com/sonic-the-hedgehog-third-film-live-action-series-knuckles-streaming-news/), a six-episode live-action series is planned for early 2024 on Paramount Plus. The series will feature Idris Elba returning to voice the warrior Echidna. It will take place between the events of the Sonic 2 and Sonic 3 movies.
