Hollywood star Rupert Everett is considering quitting acting, because it has "lost its allure".
The gay British actor is about to shoot a new Sherlock Holmes TV movie and has a number of movies, including The Chronicles of Narnia: the Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe soon to be released.
But Everett hints it may be a while before moviegoers see him again after his current projects.
He says: "I'm not working for the rest of this year, I hope. I don't know that I ever want to work again actually to be honest. To a certain extent, acting has slightly lost it's allure for me.
"It's quite hard work and I'm quite bossy and control-oriented, so that's quite a difficult mixture sometimes."
