‘Ace Ventura 3’ in the works at Amazon with ‘Sonic the Hedgehog’ writers
Morgan Creek – the company behind the first two movies, which featured Jim Carrey as the titular pet detective – has revealed that it is working on a new movie in the franchise.
The independent entertainment company told Park Circus: “We’re pretty excited about our franchise developments with Exorcist and the Ace Ventura franchise — its noticeable from the three million fans chatting on the official Facebook page for Ace Ventura that audiences are clamouring for a third instalment…
Ace Ventura 3: COVID audiences thrilled with return of beloved characters
“During COVID, audiences have been in love and are thrilled to have beloved characters brought back with new stories. ‘Ace Ventura’ will see a new day at Amazon as a major motion picture/theatrical with the ‘Sonic the Hedgehog’ writers.”
If Carrey returns for the upcoming movie – it has been 26 years since the actor was last seen on the big screen as Ace Ventura, the pet detective who was part of his big breakout — he would be reuniting with Sonic the Hedgehog writers Pat Casey and Josh Miller.
Ace Ventura: Pet Detective was released in 1994 and starred Carrey, Courteney Cox, Sean Young, Dan Marino and Tone Loc.
The sequel Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls arrived just under two years later.
‘Sonic the Hedgehog 2’ already in production
Morgan Creek also announced that Sonic The Hedgehog 2 has officially started production. The highly anticipated sequel to the 2020 big screen video game adaptation – starred Ben Schwartz as the voice of Sonic the Hedgehog and Jim Carrey as Doctor Robotnik – is on the way, and director Jeff Fowler has revealed work is already underway on a follow-up.
