"I play a widower whose dead wife comes back to haunt him when he starts a relationship with a younger woman.
"Nicole Kidman is going to play the ghost. They haven't cast the young love interest yet."

Carrey says there will not be a Mask 2, Grinch 2 or another Ace Ventura though he has been offered such vehicles numerous times.
