Pointing to his new film The Great Escaper, the 90-year-old Caine noted, 'I've got wonderful reviews. What am I gonna do to beat this?'

Look, we’ll admit to a certain amount of trepidation with this story—because the wily bastard has burnt us before—but Michael Caine says he’s retiring from acting. This should not be wholly surprising, in so far as Caine is now 90, an age at which relatively few people are still on that daily grind. But, like we said: Caine is foxy. Can’t take your eyes off the guy.

Because Michael Caine is still pretty funny he did note, in this same BBC Radio 4 interview, that “The only parts I’m likely to get now are old men, 90-year-old men — well, maybe 85, you know?” Ultimately concluding that, “I might as well leave with all this. I’ve got wonderful reviews. What am I gonna do to beat this?” To which we say: We’ll believe it when we see it.
