10 Actors Who Really Need To Fire Their Agent

Arguably the biggest movie star on the planet at one stage of his career, Jim Carrey could also have reinvented himself as a serious dramatic talent but chose to remain safely within his comedic wheelhouse instead. Nowadays, the 55 year-old finds himself struggling for relevance in the modern Hollywood landscape.

A Golden Globe winner for Best Actor in both the Drama and Comedy or Musical categories, at the turn of the 21st Century Carrey was receiving serious critical praise for his work in The Truman Show, Man on the Moon and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. Had he wanted to, the actor could have easily retained his place at the top of the A-list by seguing into more dramatic material on a regular basis.

Instead, the Canadian funnyman attempted to hold on to former glories with the likes of Fun With Dick and Jane, Yes Man, The Incredible Burt Wonderstone and Dumb and Dumber To. Jim Carrey has proven himself to be an incredibly talented actor and with his 60th birthday getting ever closer, surely it is now or never to give up the rubber-faced antics and play things straight.
