Is Viggo Mortensen pulling a Joaquin Phoenix? Rumors are floating that Viggo may quit acting, but is there any truth to the gossip? Have film roles dried up so much for Mortensen that he’s looking for another career?

According to Viggo Mortensen himself, he may quit the biz, telling The Times of London: “No more movies. I haven’t said yes to one in over a year. If it all dries up now, I’ve had a good run.”

He also told the press, “In the past week I’ve been from Los Angeles to Japan to Korea to Poland to the UK. It’s ridiculous and it’s not a healthy way to be. But, as it happens, I’m taking measures to change that.”

So, what will Viggo Mortensen do now? He says “there are other things I want to do. It’s not the right time.”
