Keeping Out Of The Spotlight – These Hollywood Stars Walked Away
18. Anthony Hopkins
Nobody could play Hannibal Lecter quite like Anthony Hopkins. He is one of those actors that gets so immersed in the characters he plays that it is no wonder he has been nominated for five Academy Awards, and won the award for his role in 1991’s Silence Of The Lambs, opposite the brilliant and talented Jodie Foster. He has been in at least 80 movies and has enjoyed a rich, and rewarding acting career.
He stepped away from the limelight for quite a long period enjoying some rest and relaxation. But the Hollywood bug bit him again and he decided to take a role in Netflix’s The Two Popes for which he was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Actor In A Supporting Role. For now, we will wait and see what he does next!
