Jim Carrey becomes a live-streamer, rallies his #EggHeads in exclusive “Sonic 3” deleted scene
"I hope you can deal with all this rizz," Carrey's Ivo Robotnik says.
What would Jim Carrey's Ivo Robotnik look like as a live-streamer? A Sonic the Hedgehog 3 deleted scene has the answer.
Entertainment Weekly's exclusive look (shown above) from the home release bonus features of the film revealed a scrapped moment in which Ivo reveals his pastime as a live-streamer, using the handle "Huevo Diablo." The special effects are incomplete, so pay no mind to the blue screen in the background.
Emerging with grandfather Gerald Robotnik (also played by Carrey), Shadow (Keanu Reeves), and Agent Stone (Lee Majdoub) in London to swipe a super-weapon key card from G.U.N. headquarters, he shows off his "rizz" to all his #EggHeads. Of course, all of his Egg Heads are just Stone furiously tapping the like button.
