James Eugene Carrey (/ˈkæri/; born January 17, 1962) is a Canadian and American actor and comedian. Known primarily for his energetic slapstick performances, he has received two Golden Globe Awards, in addition to nominations for BAFTA Awards and Screen Actors Guild Awards. After spending the 1980s honing his comedy act and playing supporting roles in films, Carrey gained recognition when he was cast in the Fox sketch comedy series In Living Color (1990–1994). He broke out as a film star after starring in a string of box office hits, such as Ace Ventura: Pet Detective, The Mask, Dumb and Dumber (all 1994), Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls, and Batman Forever(both 1995). The success of these five films led to Carrey being the first comic actor to receive an upfront $20 million salary for performing in films, beginning with The Cable Guy (1996). Carrey continued to have success as a leading actor in comedies such as Liar Liar (1997), How the Grinch Stole Christmas (2000), Bruce Almighty (2003), Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events (2004), and Yes Man (2008). Since the 2010s, Carrey appeared in fewer films, with notable works including Dumb and Dumber To (2014) and his role as Doctor Eggman in the Sonic the Hedgehog film series (2020–present). Although typecast mainly as a comedic actor, Carrey had success in dramatic roles. His critically acclaimed performances include the title role in The Truman Show (1998) and Andy Kaufman in Man on the Moon (1999), for which he won Golden Globe Awards. He starred in the romantic drama film Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004), for which he was nominated for a BAFTA Award and another Golden Globe. Carrey also starred in the Showtime tragicomedy series Kidding (2018–2020), for which he received his seventh Golden Globe nomination.

S1E1: Bad Since Birth It was a storming and gloomy night (gloomier than usual for Gotham) when a woman crashed on the steps of the GCPD begging and screaming "Please, he'll kill it!". The police surrounded the woman to help her to her feet when they discovered that she was none other than Harley Quinn. She continued to plead and beg, repeating "He'll kill it". Harley Quinn was pregnant and if the Joker ever found out, she and her child would be dead...or worse. With the help of the Justice League and Lex Luthor, Harley Quinn gave birth to her daughter in Mount Justice outside of Happy Harbor, Maine. After orchestrating a false death, the Joker forgot about Harley and his secret daughter April was safe. Trapped inside Mount Justice for her own safety, April knew nothing about the outside world for 17 years. Isolation like that causes trauma and to cope with her trauma, April often sought comfort in the mental apparitions of her father. In a cruel twist of fate, the Joker and his daughter had never been closer.
