Hollywood comedian Jim Carrey, 41, has been turning heads on the set of his new adventure/comedy Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events, by turning up with "more security than any Hollywood star ever," an insider said.
"Each day before he starts, he has the set cleared and closed for anyone but absolutely essential personnel."
The source said Carrey also avoids spending time with the many child actors on the film.
It is a strange turnabout for the Canadian star.
An insider who worked with Carrey only two months ago says this new Jim is "a far cry" from the one on the set of his last film, Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind, where he paid for his own personal chef and other amenities and happily mingled with extras.
