I can draw off the feelings I have, Carrey reportedly told the director.

“我可以把我的感觉演绎出来，”据说凯瑞如此和威尔说道。

Carrey had recently become a huge star, and he identified with Truman's sense of being constantly watched.

凯瑞在此部电影不久后成了巨星，他理解楚门时刻被监视的感觉。

Weir wanted Carrey, with his rubber-faced comedic zeal, and he was willing to wait a year for the actor, then busy with The Cable Guy and Liar Liar, to become available.

威尔想让凯瑞做男主角，凯瑞有橡胶一般喜剧性的脸，为让凯瑞主演，威尔愿意等待一年，凯瑞当时正忙于拍摄《王牌特派员》和《大话王》。

The film stars Jim Carrey as the happy-go-lucky insurance salesman Truman Burbank, a man whose every moment, unbeknownst to him, has been broadcast on television, turning his life into a 24-hour reality show.

影明星金·凯瑞在电影中饰演无忧无虑的保险推销员楚门·伯班克，在毫不知情的情况下，他无时不刻出现在电视直播上，他的生活被打造成了24小时真人秀。
