* Different Styles: While both are known for physical comedy, they have distinct styles. Sandler is more laid-back and observational, while Carrey is over-the-top and energetic. This difference in comedic approach might make it difficult to find a script that caters to both of their strengths.
* Career Paths: Their careers have diverged in recent years. Sandler has focused primarily on Netflix productions, while Carrey has been more selective with his roles, choosing serious dramatic projects as well. This might have lessened the likelihood of them crossing paths on a project.
* Timing: Perhaps the opportunity hasn't presented itself. Both actors are very busy, and it's possible they haven't encountered a script or project that felt like a perfect fit for both of them.
It's worth noting that there have been a few instances where it seemed like a collaboration might be in the works:
* In 2011, there were rumors of a film called "The Sitter" that was set to star both Sandler and Carrey. However, the project never came to fruition.
* Carrey has expressed admiration for Sandler's work, and vice versa.
While there's no definitive reason why they haven't worked together, it's safe to say that a film featuring these two comic legends would be a dream come true for many fans. Perhaps one day, the stars will align and we'll finally see them on screen together!
