Stanley Ipkiss is a nice, but insecure bank employee whose life is turned upside down. One night, when his car breaks down, he discovers a mysterious mask and brings it back to his apartment. Stanley puts on the mask and he is magically transformed into a crazed, out of control superhero called The Mask. However, The Mask's antics catch the attention of thug Dorian Tyrell who has a score to settle with The Mask when The Mask beats him to robbing the local bank and arrogant police detective Lt. Mitch Kellaway and his dumb, fat and ugly partner Detective Doyle are on The Mask's trail and Lt. Kellaway is bent on bringing The Mask down.

The movie is based on a comic book, also called "The Mask", published by Dark Horse comics.

No. All the characters impersonated or just played are played by Jim Carrey. He plays both Stanley Ipkiss and The Mask.

Originally, there were plans to make a sequel to The Mask after its release. However, these plans fell through after Jim Carrey opted not to reprise his role. Carrey felt that, based on his experiences in filming Ace Ventura - Missione Africa (1995), reprising his character in a sequel to The Mask would not have offered him any challenges as an actor. Nevertheless, several years later, a sequel was made, The Mask 2 (2005). However, the film featured a different cast and crew to the previous film and unlike its predecessor, was a major critical and commercial failure. Furthermore, there was an animated TV series The Mask (1995) that was based on this film.
