Jim Carrey's well and truly back in the new Sonic the Hedgehog trailer – but Sonic still looks weird

However, while Carrey only appears to be wearing Eggman cosplay, the sneak peek of his eccentric performance marks his first major comedy role in a film since the Dumb and Dumber sequel.

We’ll leave it up to you whether that’s a good thing or not.
