That's great, that Dr. Jim Carrey will probably have another project, after he does "The Bad Batch", also great, that it's gonna be another drama. I love the dramas that Dr. Carrey does, I hope he will continue to do more and more dramas. I also hope that his beard will be shaved of whenever he does "True Crimes".

Sincerely,

Terry Marvin (Dallas, Texas)

P.S. 2015 so far, has been a busy year for Dr. Carrey. 2015 is only 5 months old. It sounds like that the rest of 2015, might be pretty busy year for Dr. Carrey.

Well, that's interesting. Christoph Waltz was previously attached to play the lead role. If Jim signs on indeed will play

the police officer who reopens the cold case and becomes entangled in the dark underworld of Poland's sex rings, prostitution and drugs

I knew I've heard about it before, thanks Nick.

That said, I'm getting a 'Number 23'-vibe from this. I would like to know more before I get excited.

Yes. Hope its a gripping and intense tale. Unlike "The Number 23" . Happy that Jim s into serious stuff. Any info on his role in The Bad Batch ?

Wow
What a story
What happened in the appeal
Did he stay in jail or get out?

[Canadian Jayne]

I looked it up
He was convicted
And got 25 years
Will Jim
be the policeman?

[Nick]

Will Jim
be the policeman?

Yes

[Canadian Jayne]

Gud
He will do well with this one
Looking forward to seeing this
Story line is excellent
Truth is stranger than fiction
I still have a lot of questions on this
But
I may have to read the book
To understand things more clearly

[Giulia]

Will Jim
be the policeman?

Yes

Is he the protagonist, or is however a big role ?

The only thing I would like to see changed is the title. It's too simple and obvious at the sime time. Nothing apealing in that, imo.
