90-year-old British actor Michael Caine announces retirement

Recently, British actor Michael Caine said that "The Great Escaper", which will be released on October 6 this year, will be the last film of his career. At the age of 90, he believes that he has retired.

"The Great Escaper" is adapted from real events. In 2014, on the 70th anniversary of the Normandy Landing, Caine played the 89-year-old British veteran Bernard Jordan, who staged a great escape. He sneaked out of the nursing home and went through untold hardships to the beach in Normandy to commemorate their dead comrades with other veterans.

Michael Caine told The Daily Telegraph: "I'm 90 now and I can't walk properly, so I'm retired."

Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, Michael Caine has not made a movie for three years. "I thought my career was over, but I didn't expect to be able to make this movie. I had a lot of fun. They gave me a very good crutch to shoot some scenes that required a crutch."

Director Oliver Parker praised Kane for his portrayal of a vulnerable character and expressed admiration for his ability to return to acting after a long break. Parker said that they were very careful on the set regarding Kane's physical condition and gave him plenty of rest.

Because he appeared in many Nolan movies in the late stage of his career, domestic movie fans are quite familiar with Michael Caine. In addition to playing Alfred in The Dark Knight trilogy, he also appeared in The Prestige, Inception, Interstellar, and Tenet, and also performed voice in Dunkirk.
