One of the problems is salary, and Carrey is also reported to be interested in “meatier, more complex” roles. The actor's spokeswoman simply said, “It is ‘no.’ He will not appear.” New Line states that the sequel is "in development" and will proceed with or without Carrey. There's also word that Victoria “Posh Spice” Adams Beckman is being considered for a role in the film. Thanks to MSNBC.
