ANTHONY HOPKINS - HOPKINS IN SEMI-RETIREMENT

HOPKINS IN SEMI-RETIREMENT

Hollywood star SIR ANTHONY HOPKINS has entered semi-retirement, insisting it would take a hugely tempting film offer to convince him to work again. The 69-year-old Oscar winner has achieved all he wants from his long and successful career and plans to pick and choose what roles to take from now on. Hopkins explains, "I'm beginning to think that sitting in a damp trailer in the middle of a field somewhere is not the best way to spend my time. So I tend to be choosy. "I don't need to prove myself. I don't care what anyone thinks any more. I literally learn my lines and show up if I feel it's right to."
