It wouldn’t be wrong to say that one of the names that comes to mind when we say Hollywood is the legendary actor Jim Carrey. The actor, who took part in many iconic productions such as Ace Ventura, Truman Show, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, The Mask and many more, was among the indispensable names of movies, especially comedy genre. We haven’t been able to see Anack Carrey in new productions recently, except for Kidding and Sonic The Hedgehog.
Now the 60-year-old Golden Globe-winning famous actor has made statements to the news site Access that will upset his fans. Carrey stated in a statement that he is considering retiring by ending his acting career.
“If I don’t come across a perfect scenario, I will retire”
Carrey, who has come to the fore in recent years with his private life and psychological problems, said, “I’m probably retiring. I’m pretty serious about this. If I come across a great scenario that people really need to see, I can move on; But as long as that doesn’t happen, I’m taking a break. I love my quiet life, painting and spiritual life. I think I have done enough about acting” and stated that he is considering quitting acting after Sonic 2, which will be released in the coming days.
Carrey’s already troubled life was made worse when his girlfriend committed suicide in 2015. The legendary actress, who later took a break from Hollywood, emphasized that she went through an awakening process and her struggle with depression in her statements.
Legendary player Jim Carrey isn’t the only one who has recently decided to retire. Recently, it was announced that Bruce Willis, whom we know from Die Hard, Pulp Fiction, Sixth Sense and many other cult productions, ended his acting career due to aphasia.
