The Mask

The Mask is a 1994 superhero slapstick comedy film loosely based on the 1991 comic book series by John Arcudi and Doug Mahnke. Directed by Chuck Russell and written by Mike Werb, the film stars Jim Carrey in the title role, along with Peter Riegert, Peter Greene, Amy Yasbeck, Richard Jeni, and Cameron Diaz. The plot follows Stanley Ipkiss (Carrey), a hapless and timid bank teller who discovers an enchanted mask that transforms him into a green-faced wisecracking trickster with the ability to cartoonishly alter himself and his surroundings at will. It is the first film in the Mask franchise. Principal photography began in Los Angeles on August 30, 1993, and concluded in October.
