Denzel Washington, 69, has announced that he is leaving Hollywood after finishing a few projects. This comes as a surprise. This famous actor’s choice is the end of a long and eventful career that lasted decades.
Most likely not that many.” This news comes as Washington is getting ready to play Othello again, a part he first played when he was 22.
“I’m about to play Othello at 70,” the two-time Oscar winner said, happy to be at the end of his career. Washington is also working on projects with renowned directors Steve McQueen and Ryan Coogler, who is supposedly writing a part for him in the next Black Panther movie.
In addition, Washington talked about his work in King Lear and joked, “After that, I’m going to retire.” This choice comes after an amazing career that began with the TV movie Wilma in 1977 and his first movie, Carbon Copy, in 1981.
Washington has become one of the most respected actors in Hollywood thanks to his large amount of work. His outstanding work in movies like Glory, Training Day, and Malcolm X has shown off his ability and dedication, earning him a lot of praise and awards.
Washington said earlier this year that he wanted to be a part of the Gladiator II project, highlighting how picky he is about the movies he watches. “There are very few films left for me to make that I’m interested in, and I have to be inspired by the filmmaker,” he added.
Fans and people in the movie business will be celebrating Denzel Washington’s amazing legacy, which is one of hard work, great performances, and a lasting effect on the world of movies.
