Jim Carrey’s The Mask Gets a Stunning 4K Upgrade
05 Nov 2025 By Tommy Pihl (Editor-in-Chief)
One of Jim Carrey’s most beloved and explosive comedies, "The Mask" (1994), is back — and it’s looking better than ever! Arrow Video has just unveiled an exclusive 4K clip from their upcoming Limited Edition release, giving fans a dazzling new look at one of the film’s most iconic moments.
Directed by Chuck Russell and based on the Dark Horse comic by John Arcudi and Doug Mahnke, The Mask stars Jim Carrey, Cameron Diaz, Peter Riegert, Peter Greene, and Richard Jeni. Upon its release, the film became a global phenomenon, grossing over $350 million worldwide and solidifying Jim Carrey as one of Hollywood’s brightest stars.
In the newly restored footage, we see Jim’s unforgettable alter ego Stanley Ipkiss don the magical mask and unleash pure cartoon chaos — twisting up balloon animals in a scene that starts with charm and erupts into pure mayhem. It’s vintage Jim Carrey energy at its absolute peak, now sharper, brighter, and more vibrant than ever before.
Arrow Video is rolling out The Mask in two stunning editions — a Limited Edition 4K Ultra HD and a Limited Edition Blu-ray — landing November 11, 2025 in the U.S. and Canada, and November 10, 2025 in the U.K.
This brand-new 4K restoration, taken directly from the original camera negative, brings every over-the-top expression, neon zoot suit shimmer, and cartoon explosion to life like never before.
