Hugh Grant says he's lost interest in acting and is heading into retirement.
 Huge Grant | Grant,
who plays heartthrob Daniel Cleaver in "Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason," was
quoted Thursday by the Evening Standard's Metro magazine as saying film acting
is a "miserable experience."
"It's so long and boring and so difficult to get right," Grant said.
"I am sort of semiretired," he said. "I keep thinking I'm going to write a
brilliant script."
Grant, whose screen credits include "Four Weddings and a Funeral," "Notting
Hill" and the first "Bridget Jones" movie, gained international notoriety when
he was caught in a car with Hollywood prostitute Divine Brown in 1995.
The 44-year-old actor, who took his new girlfriend, heiress Jemima Khan, to
this week's London premiere of "Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason," told the
magazine he didn't feel pressure to settle down.
