The Truman Show Was Originally Going To Feature Him Fighting Crime (Favourite Jim Carrey Roles)
Edit: A copyright claim was made against this video and rather than give a giant movie studio all the money this video earns we cut out the 8 seconds of video from the film we used. - Karl
Jim Carrey is an actor who is best known for playing comedic roles in movies. Even while doing a more dramatic role in The Truman Show, he still came across as humorous and upbeat. So it's hard to imagine that The Truman Show was originally going to have him fighting crime.
