DanyBoss Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 The 56-year-old French star has declared for Le Parisien that he considers ending his career as an actor, stating that he doesn't want to ?hang on like an idiot?. ?I have nothing to lose. I have made 170 films. I have nothing left to prove?, he said. Depardieu has made the statement while on the set of the upcoming ?Michou d'Auber? and is to start working on a third Asterix film next year. His agent, Claude Davy, rushed to deny the actor's declarations, mentioning that Depardieu has been threatening to quit acting 'for ten years' and that he doesn't believe a word of it. ?Instead of making two or three films a year, it's possible he'll make no more than one every three years?, Davy said. Meanwhile, the French actor has found other interests, such as making wine - he owns vineyards in France, Spain, Morocco and Argentina. He also has two restaurants in Paris and has written a cookbook. Depardieu was a leading French actor of the 1980s and 1990s, with hits such as "Green Card", "Jean de Florette" and "Cyrano de Bergerac", for which he was nominated to an Oscar.

kirk26 Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 Too bad. Cyrano is one of my favorite films by him. Don't care to much for his American movies except Man in the Iron Mask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
