Cameron Diaz Open to The Mask Sequel—If Jim Carrey Is On Board

Fans of the 1994 cult classic The Mask have reason to get excited as Cameron Diaz has recently expressed openness to returning for a sequel—provided that Jim Carrey reprises his iconic role. Diaz, who famously played nightclub singer Tina Carlyle opposite Carrey’s transformative Stanley Ipkis, made her thoughts clear during a January 2025 interview with Access Hollywood, emphasizing that Carrey’s involvement is non-negotiable.

After a decade-long hiatus from acting, Diaz’s recent comeback with Netflix’s Back in Action appears to have reignited her interest in revisiting some of her most memorable roles. The Mask was a pivotal film for both stars, helping to launch Diaz’s career and cementing Carrey as a comedic powerhouse.

Jim Carrey’s own position on a sequel was outlined in a December 2024 interview with Comicbook.com, where he indicated he would consider returning only if the project features a strong, compelling story. With Carrey still active—most recently starring as Doctor Robotnik in Sonic the Hedgehog 3 (2024)—there is potential for him to revisit the character under the right circumstances.

Diaz has also hinted at other reunion projects, including a possible new Charlie’s Angels sequel with Drew Barrymore and Lucy Liu, even suggesting Jamie Foxx as a fresh take on Bosley. These comments, highlighted in a recent Variety article, showcase her broader willingness to reengage with beloved franchises following her return to the screen.

As of mid-June 2025, no concrete developments have been announced regarding The Mask sequel. Despite enthusiastic fan speculation on platforms like Reddit, and coverage by outlets including a recent AOL article, no official updates or production news have surfaced. The delay is likely tied to the need for a script that meets Carrey’s standards or studio deliberations, but specifics remain under wraps.

For now, the possibility of a Mask sequel remains tantalizingly open—with Cameron Diaz ready to “ride those coattails” once again, as long as Jim Carrey is ready to don the magical mask.
