Out on Friday (December 20), it will also see him portray Gerald, Ivo’s grandfather.Meanwhile, he recently told ComicBook.com that he’d potentially be interested in playing the Grinch again, but only if he did it via motion capture. “The thing about it is, on the day, I do that with a ton of makeup and can hardly breathe,” he said. “It was an extremely excruciating process.

The children were in my mind all the time. ‘It’s for the kids. It’s for the kids. It’s for the kids.’ And now, with motion capture and things like that, I could be free to do other things.

Anything is possible in this world.”In a separate interview, ComicBook.com asked him whether he’d be willing to work on a sequel to his 2004 comedy The Mask, in which he starred alongside Cameron Diaz.
