Cameron Diaz Says She's Open To A 'Mask' Sequel, But Only Under 1 Condition
HuffPost
The actor confirmed Friday that she's more than game to reprise the role that made her famous in 1994, but shared a big caveat.
Cameron Diaz is game for a sequel to “The Mask” — but doesn’t want to carry it herself.
Diaz is currently basking in a bit of a career renaissance after more than a decade away from Hollywood. While promoting her new aptly-titled film, “Back in Action,” seemed willing to reprise the role that made her famous in 1994 — but only under one condition.
When informed during an Access Hollywood interview Friday that Jim Carrey said he was open to a “Mask” sequel, and asked if Diaz would return as her character, Tina Carlyle, she excitedly replied: “Oh my God, did he say that? I mean, if Jim’s on board.”
“I’ve been riding those coattails from day one,” Diaz added.
The blockbuster marked Diaz’s first major movie role, providing her with an iconic entrance in-character that served a real-life springboard for a decades-long career to come.
