Joaquin Phoenix dropped quite a shocker at a benefit for Paul Newman's camps for kids, announcing his plans to quit acting.
"I want to take this opportunity ... to give you the exclusive and just talk a little bit about the fact that this will be my last performance as an actor," the two-time Oscar nominee told Extra at the San Francisco event. "I'm not doing films anymore."
"Are you serious?" asked the stunned interviewer Jerry Penacoli.
"Yeah. I'm working on my music," Phoenix insisted. "I'm done. I've been through that."
His rep confirmed the retirement to Extra.
