Alec Baldwin will hang up his acting shoes after his 30 Rock contract ends, calling his career a “complete failure.”
“I don’t have any interest in acting anymore,” Baldwin revealed in an interview wih Men’s Journal this week. “Movies are part of my past. It’s been 30 years. I’m not young, but I have time to do something else.”
He’s starred in flicks like The Hunt for Red October and Glengarry Glen Ross, but despite his success, his Baldwin characterizes his acting career as a “complete failure.”
“It’s a difficult thing to say, but I believe it,” Baldwin said. “The goal of moviemaking is to star in a film where your performance drives the film, and the film is either a soaring critical or commercial success, and I never had that.”
Baldwin, 51, is the star of 30 Rock, the critically acclaimed sitcom that’s earned multiple Emmys for him and the show. His latest project, It’s Complicated, stars Steve Martin and Meryl Streep and will open Christmas Day.
