Jessica Lange has suggested she is ready to retire.
The 77-year-old actress admitted she feels her career is "coming to an end" and though she is attached to some projects that have yet to be filmed, she isn't sure if they will ever happen.
Asked what she is still keen to tackle in her career, she told Rolling Stone magazine: "I actually feel like I’m coming to an end. Maybe it’s not a bad way to end, that last film being Long Day’s Journey Into Night and playing Mary Tyrone. There are a couple projects that have been in the works forever that may or may not happen. I don’t know. It doesn’t seem easy to get things made anymore. At least not the kind of films that interest me."
The American Horror Story actress - who has won two Oscars, three Emmys and a Tony Award during her glittering career - feels lucky to have had so many "extraordinary" opportunities with her career over the years.
She said: “When I think of the directors I worked with: [Bob] Fosse, Bob Rafelson, Costa-Gavras, Tony Richardson, Karel Reisz. I [had] extraordinary opportunities working with great artists.
“And the actors I was working with! Dustin [Hoffman] and Kim [Stanley] and Jack [Nicholson]. We got to throw [Martin] Scorsese in there, too. It was an extraordinary run.”
