At one point, Charlotte asked, “I know your film Sonic has a bucket list, and I was wondering after all you’ve done in your career and your life, is there anything still left on your bucket list?” Carrey quipped, “Just you. That’s it. It’s all done now.” Charlotte looked surprised before he chuckled and replied, “I don’t know what to say to that.” As he laughed, Carrey said, “Just own it.”
