Hollywood actor and comedian Jim Carrey is back in the spotlight. The star posted a funny video message for his longtime friend and colleague Jeff Ross to celebrate his birthday.
RBC-Ukraine reports that the video attracted considerable attention from fans, as it is one of Carrey’s few recent appearances on Instagram.
What the actor looks like now
In the video, the actor appeared in his familiar style, with his trademark facial expressions, energetic manner, and sense of humor. Carrey addressed Ross with humorous birthday wishes, once again showing the charisma that once made him one of Hollywood’s most famous comedians.
Fans also took notice of the 64-year-old actor’s appearance.
In the comments, users noted that he looked much more familiar this time, and his behavior reminded the public of Jim Carrey from the days of his most popular comedy roles in The Mask, Ace Ventura, and other cult films.
Why fans started talking about a Jim Carrey lookalike
The new video appeared amid discussions about the actor’s appearance following his appearance at the 51st César Awards ceremony in Paris in February 2026.
At the time, photos and videos from the red carpet were widely shared on social media. Some users noticed that Carrey looked unusual: his face appeared more rounded, his hair was noticeably longer and grayer, and his facial expressions were much more restrained than fans were used to seeing from the actor.
Against this backdrop, theories began circulating online that the person at the public event was allegedly not Carrey himself, but his lookalike. However, no credible evidence has emerged to support these claims.
