Michael Caine, 90, says he’s retiring from acting

The Dark Knight actor confirmed his retirement with the release of his last movie.

Sir Michael Caine confirmed his retirement this time. 

Following the release of his latest film The Great Escaper, the 90-year-old Oscar winner made this new announcement on BBC Radio 4’s Today Programme. During the interview, he added, “I keep saying I’m going to retire. Well, I am now”. “I’ve figured, I’ve had a picture where I’ve played the lead and it’s got incredible reviews. The only parts I’m likely to get now are old men.”

Last month, in an interview with The Telegraph, Michael gave a hint saying he was “sort of” retired, where he also discussed his role in the latest movie “ The Great Escaper”. The movie was based on a true story, Caine plays a World War II veteran Bernard Jordan, who broke out of his care home to attend the 70th anniversary of D-Day landings in France.

He added that he believes it is significant to portray old age in movies, and that is the major reason that kept him acting until now. 

Speaking of the movie, Caine said “I was so happy to do it. I just loved the character of Bernie. I thought he was incredible, and it’s so beautifully written… With COVID-19 and all that, I hadn’t done a picture for three years, and I thought I was finished. And I suddenly did it – and had such a wonderful time. I am bloody 90 now, and I can’t walk properly and all that. I sort of am retired now.”
