Odin agrees, but only for a limited time, stating this is his last chance. Loki, still determined to please his father, sneaks into the Avery household that night and manages to complete a summoning ritual and appeal to Odin to restore his powers. Tim is later fired after failing to impress Moss during a pitch, but is able to reconcile and bond with Alvey. Odin, possessing Tim's body, becomes fed up with Loki's destructive approach for defying him once again and strips his son of his powers. Meanwhile, Otis, who has been feeling neglected by Tim because of Alvey, dons the mask by accident and becomes a reincarnation of the masked persona of Stanley's Ipkiss' dog, Milo, who tries to get rid of Alvey, but all of his attempts are foiled by the much craftier infant.Įventually, Loki, after searching from home to home for the baby and leaving a trail of mayhem in his wake, finds Alvey and confronts Tim for the mask back, but Alvey uses his powers to protect his father. In order to get some peace and quiet, Tim lets Alvey watch various cartoons on television, giving him the idea to torment his father using his powers. Tim, now promoted, desperately tries to work on his cartoon at home, but is continuously disrupted by Alvey. Months later, Tonya goes on a business trip, leaving Tim with their son.

Possessing a store clerk, Odin informs Loki about this and tells him that if he finds the child, he will find the mask. The baby, Alvey, is born with the same powers as the mask, which alerts Odin. Tim returns to his house that night and, while still wearing the mask, conceives a baby. When the party turns out to be a bore, Tim uses his newfound powers to perform a remix of " Can't Take My Eyes Off You", making the party a success and giving Tim's boss, Daniel Moss, the inspiration for a new cartoon, resulting in his promotion the next day. Later that night, Tim puts on the mask for a Halloween party held at the studio, becoming a reincarnation of Stanley Ipkiss' "The Mask" alter-ego. Loki asks his father to help him, only for the latter to sternly say that he has to take responsibility for his actions. On a tropical island, Loki is relaxing until Odin confronts and orders him to resume the search for the mask he had sent him on, as he believes it has caused too much chaos for mankind. Meanwhile, the real mask, which was disposed of by Stanley Ipkiss and Tina Carlyle, makes its way to Fringe City and is found in a river by a dog named Otis - who belongs to Tim Avery, an aspiring animator at an animation studio, who is reluctant to accept parenthood with his wife, Tonya. In anger, he removes Neuman's face from his body and puts it in the case, before disposing of the arriving authorities and storming out of the museum in a rage. The tourists panic and flee, but Neuman stays to argue with Loki, who takes the mask in the display case, only to realize it is a replica. When Neuman brings up Loki's punishment and imprisonment at Odin's hands, a stranger suddenly becomes furious and transforms, revealing himself to be Loki. Neuman mentions that Loki, the God of Mischief, created the mask and unleashed it on Earth in order to spread his chaos among mankind, and that those who wear the mask are granted his powers. The film was a critical and financial failure upon release, being panned by both critics and fans of the original for its story, lack of the original cast, and moments too inappropriate for a PG film, with many considering it one of the worst films of all time while it grossed $59.9 million against its $84–100 million budget.Ī decade after the events of the first film, Doctor Arthur Neuman is giving a tour of the hall of Norse mythology in Edge City's local museum. Ben Stein makes a brief reappearance in the beginning of the film as Doctor Arthur Neuman from the original film to reestablish the relationship with the mask and Loki. It co-stars Traylor Howard, Kal Penn, Steven Wright, Bob Hoskins as Odin, and Ryan and Liam Falconer as Tim's baby Alvey. It also stars Alan Cumming as Loki, whom Odin has ordered to find the Mask. It is a standalone sequel to the 1994 film The Mask, an adaptation of Dark Horse Comics which starred Jim Carrey and Cameron Diaz. The film stars Jamie Kennedy as Tim Avery, an aspiring animator from Fringe City who has just had his first child born with the powers of the Mask. Son of the Mask is a 2005 superhero comedy film directed by Lawrence Guterman.
