Though he almost lost out, Jeff Daniels is currently starring in “A Man in Full,” one of Netflix’s hottest shows.
The actor nearly lost up on his Hollywood career ten years ago. He gives Jim Carrey, his costar and buddy, credit for encouraging him to persevere.
Daniels revealed in an interview with IndieWire that he had a moment when he told Carrey, “I’m done,” following the completion of filming the “Dumb and Dumber” sequel “Dumb and Dumber To” in 2014.
In order to escape the Hollywood lifestyle, Jeff Daniels relocated his family to Michigan.
He recalled Carrey saying to him, “You have to keep creating because you’re creative and you can’t stop yourself from creating something.” We engage in that activity.”
