Oscar winner Kevin Spacey doesn't care about his movie career any more.The man who won the best actor statue for American Beauty insists he loves his job as the artistic director of London's Old Vic Theatre so much, that he is no longer interested in Hollywood roles.Kevin said: "I don't care about my personal acting career any more. I'm done with it."After ten years of making movies and going better than I ever could have imagined, I sort of had to ask myself: What am I supposed to do with all of this success that I have had?"Am I just going to keep making movie after movie and be concerned with all of that 'Are you up, are you down, are you hot, are you not?', and I don't really care."What I care about is working with people, what I care about is the remarkable experience of being able to be a part of bringing people together."Kevin has acted in Richard III and Moon for the Misbegotten at the Old Vic since he started working there four years ago.He will take a lead role in David Mamet's Speed-the-Plow and he will team up with Sam Mendes again later in the 2007-08 season as the American Beauty director is working on Old Vic productions of The Tempest and Hamlet.The season also includes Victorian thriller Gaslight, All About My Mother, based on the film by Pedro Almodovar and the Old Vic panto Cinderella, written by Stephen Fry.© Independent Television News Limited 2007.
