Steve Martin, the beloved actor and comedian who has graced our screens for decades, has announced his retirement from acting. The world will undoubtedly miss seeing Steve Martin’s iconic presence on television and in movies.
Martin first became a household name as part of the cast of “Saturday Night Live.” He quickly rose to fame beyond the show, starring in major films like The Pink Panther, Cheaper by the Dozen, Father of the Bride, and many more.
Despite growing older, Martin’s popularity has only continued to soar. While many people retire in their 60s, Martin experienced a career resurgence and even became a father for the first time. He married his wife, Anne Stringfield, in 2007, and the couple welcomed a daughter in 2012.
As he looks back on his remarkable career, Martin says he is ready to step back. In a recent interview, he reflected, “There’s a time in your career when people are dying to see you… Now is the time in my career when I’m the one who’s got to show up.”
