The British star has finally decided to retire from film. Michael Caine has been nominated for an Oscar many times throughout his career. He managed to win this award for his participation in productions such as “Hannah and Her Sisters” and “Against the Rules”.
Michael Cane is retiring. The latest film will be the culmination of his career
Now it has come to light that the last film in which we will be able to watch him is “The Great Escaper”, which recently appeared in British cinemas. Caine admitted in an interview for BBC Radio 4 that he initially had no intention of taking part in this production, but the script was so good that he decided to temporarily postpone his retirement.
It’s quite funny because I retired when the script was sent to me. I rejected it three times, but every time I read it, I fell in love with it, so I finally accepted the role – admitted the star.
It is worth mentioning that Caine in “The Great Escaper” played World War II veteran Bernie Jordan, who escaped from a nursing home to take part in D-Day commemorations in France. During the conversation, he also mentioned that this film would be the perfect culmination of a career spanning almost 70 years.
I kept saying I would retire. Well, I’m on it now because I have a movie in which I played the main role and it’s getting amazing reviews. The only roles I can get now are 90-year-old men. Well, maybe 85 years old, you know? I thought, ‘Well, I might as well leave now. I have great reviews. What would I have to do to top that?’
Michael Cane is known for such cinema hits as: “The Italian Job”, “Get Carter”, “Educating Rita” and “Against the Rules”. He was also one of director Christopher Nolan’s favorite actors, thanks to which he took part in many of his films. Among them: “Interstellar”, “Inception”, the Dark Knight trilogy, “The Prestige”, and “Dunkirk”.
