Comic actor Jim Carrey has surprised fans with his dramatic transformation, leaving him unrecognisable with long hair that totally changes his look.
The 62-year-old actor, who is known for his roles in films like The Grinch and Bruce Almighty, is currently sporting dark hair to his shoulders when he's previously had his hair shorter. In a snap on comedian David Spade's Instagram page, Carrey can be seen beaming for the camera alongside Adam Sandler and Spade. Spade captioned the snap: "Happy birthday to Jim Carrey who has made me laugh on and off the field so many times. Such a cool dude. I rarely bust out the cake emoji but i will today."

Also in attendance was fellow comedians Seth Green, Bill Burr and Jeff Ross as they ate at San Vicente Bungalows.
Carrey hasn't been seen in an acting role since 2020 but had been winding down roles and film work since 2016. In 2018 he told The Hollywood Reporter: "I just didn't want to be in the business anymore. I didn't like what was happening, the corporations taking over and all that." In a more recent interview he added further insight as he explained to Access Hollywood : "I feel like I have enough, I've done enough, I am enough. I really like my quiet life. It depends. If the angels bring some sort of script that's written in gold ink that says to me that it's going to be really important for people to see, I might continue down the road, but I'm taking a break."
