Hollywood actor Jim Carrey made his first appearance in 2026, attending the French Cesar Film Award ceremony in Paris, where he was awarded an honorary award for his contribution to cinema. The appearance of the artist caused a strong reaction on social networks — users discussed his changed appearance and a rare return to public space. Details can be found in the Izvestia article.

First appearance and new appearance

The actor appeared on the red carpet of the 51st Cesar ceremony in a classic black tuxedo with a bow tie. Kerry's new hairstyle attracted special attention from fans — shoulder-length hair with a signature parting, which was noticeably different from his previous image. This was the artist's first public appearance in 2026. The last time he appeared at a major event was in November 2025, during the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony in Los Angeles, where he looked different — with short hair.

After the publication of photos and videos from the event on the Internet, an active discussion began. Some users admitted that they did not immediately recognize the actor. Commentators noted that it took them a while to realize that it was Kerry in the footage.

How was the ceremony

During the ceremony, the actor received an honorary Cesar and was visibly moved when director Michel Gondry recalled their collaboration on the film Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. Kerry also delivered a speech of thanks, partly in French, highlighting his family's connection to France.

According to the actor, about 300 years ago, his ancestor Marc Francois Kerry left Saint-Malo and moved to Canada, so receiving the French award was for him a symbolic return to his roots. A special place in the speech was occupied by the memory of his father, Percy Joseph Kerry, whom the actor called the funniest man in his life. He noted that it was his father who taught him love, generosity and the ability to laugh even in difficult times.

During the performance, Kerry did not change his corporate identity — the actor accompanied the speech with characteristic facial expressions and theatrical gestures, turning the thank-you speech into a mini-performance that caused laughter in the audience.

Online reaction and rumors

Despite the solemn occasion, the main discussion on the Internet focused on the actor's appearance. Some users suggested that he could have resorted to cosmetic procedures, others put forward conspiracy theories, claiming that the double of the artist was present at the event.

Such statements have not been confirmed. Kerry himself calmly reacted to the attention of the public, continuing to communicate with fans and sign autographs after the ceremony.

A departure from Hollywood and a new life

In recent years, the actor has significantly reduced his involvement in the film industry. After the release of the movie "Sonic 3" in 2024, he did not take on new major roles. Earlier, Kerry stated that he was disappointed in the direction of the industry and tired of corporate pressure in Hollywood.

According to the actor, he found creative freedom in the visual arts — painting, sculpture and political caricature, where he can fully control the process without external interference. Kerry noted that he no longer aspires to stay at the top of the industry and feels comfortable away from constant attention.

Despite statements about his actual retirement from the profession, the actor does not rule out returning under special circumstances. He emphasized that he would agree to a new project only if he considered it really meaningful and important to the audience.
