Actor Jim Carrey, who plays Doctor Robotnik in the upcoming live-action Sonic The Hedgehog movie, has commented on what he calls the “collective consciousness” that led to filmmakers agreeing to re-do the controversial CGI design for Sonic.
Carrey was at the annual Television Critics Association meeting to discuss the second season of his Showtime series Kidding. There, he was asked what he thought about the way social media led to the makers behind the upcoming live-action Sonic movie to change the controversial design of Sonic.
“I don’t know quite how I feel about the audience being in on the creation of it while it’s happening,” Carrey says. “So, we’ll have to see what that entails, because sometimes you find that the collective consciousness decides it wants something, and then when it get it, it goes, ‘Okay. I just wanted it. I didn’t care about it. I just jumped on the bandwagon’ or whatever.”
