Jack Nicholson will no longer be appear on the big screen as the movie legend is set to retire from acting for good, a report from Radar Online has revealed. With more that half a century worth of work the triple Oscar winner has quietly retreated from the movie industry for good, due mostly to his failing memory and certain health concerns related to his old age.
Having shied away from any roles since 2010's How Do You Know, it has been revealed that his retreat from acting is down to his decision to call time on his profession and enjoy his retirement. A Hollywood insider told Radar, “Jack has — without fanfare — retired,” adding, "There is a simple reason behind his decision — it’s memory loss. Quite frankly, at 76, Jack has memory issues and can no longer remember the lines being asked of him. His memory isn’t what it used to be.”
Although there has been no word from the acting legend himself about his supposed career move, his absence from Hollywood movie sets of late has been a telling sign that his career in front of the camera is coming to an end. He was recently approached to play the lead in the upcoming film Nebraska, but ultimately told producers that he had no interest in appearing on film any time soon. He may not be acting anymore, but that doesn't mean he will become a hermit and go into hiding though, which is great news because it could spell more moments like this run in with Jennifer Lawrence at the 2013 Oscars.
