Terrence Howard Says He’s Planning to Retire from Acting… AGAIN

LUCIOUS! Get over here Lucious! During the premiere of The Best Man: The Final Chapters lead told Entertainment Tonight Terrence Howard says he’s retiring from acting. “This is the end for me. This is the end for me,” he said before adding his Best Man co-stars, “I don’t know if it’s the end for the rest of them.”

“I retired two years ago, for the most part. I was done. … I asked Sidney Poitier 10 years ago does he want to do any more work, and he said, ‘Why would I spend my last 10 years doing an impersonation of myself?’ And that’s what I’ve gotten to.”

He continued, “I’ve gotten to the point where now I’ve given the very best that I have as an actor. Now I’m enjoying watching other new talent come around, and I don’t want to do an impersonation of myself.”

Howard doubled down when asked if he was ready to hand the reins over.

“Yes, there’s some better actors out there that can do things that I was never able to do,” he said. “So, I want to applaud them, I want to be excited about what they do.”
