Shortly thereafter, Carrey signed onto In Living Color and was featured as a cast member for four years.
Impressive film roles followed for Carrey, including the Ace Ventura film franchise and The Truman Show. The actor developed a young fanbase playing the Grinch in the 2000 film How the Grinch Stole Christmas.
