We meet Dumb and Dumber To star Jim Carrey

When I started to realise how important the film was to people I thought there is a lot of negative stuff going on in the world, maybe they need these two people

Jim Carrey reveals he was reluctant to make a Dumb and Dumber sequel until he realised how much the original film meant to fans worldwide.

Dumb and Dumber To, a Farrelly Brothers production which also stars Jeff Daniels, comes a whopping 20 years after the first.

Jim said: "I don't really think about doing sequels, I don't like doing the same thing over and over again. I was being badgered constantly by fans."

He said: "When I started to realise how important the film was to people I thought there is a lot of negative stuff going on in the world, maybe they need these two people. I like doing insane things! Maybe this is for me."

Jim also revealed that he still reenacts his famous role as the Grinch - but only for his young grandson!

When asked his favourite Christmas movie he said: “Selfishly I love The Grinch - I just introduced it to my grandson and now he just looks at me through the corner of his eye a lot and says [in a whisper] ‘Grandpa - you’re the Grinch’ - he makes me do the face constantly!”
