Known for playing iconic characters like The Mask, Grinch, and Truman Burbank, Jim Carrey has also turned down Iconic roles. For example, he was offered the role of Buddy Hobbs in Elf. He was initially interested in playing the character of Buddy, but the film's production took longer than anticipated. As time passed, Carrey had other commitments and projects he needed to focus on, leading him to step away from the film. The role eventually went to Will Ferrell, who brought the character of Buddy the Elf to life in an unforgettable way.
