Freeman, 88, admitted that while his passion for acting remains strong, it has "dimmed" a little at this age.

Admitting that his "appetite is still there" Freeman noted, "I will concede that it’s dimmed a little. But not enough to make a serious difference."

He said, "Sometimes the idea of retirement would float past me but, as soon as my agent says there’s a job or somebody wants you or they’ve made an offer, the whole thing just boils back into where it was yesterday. How much you’re going to pay, where we’re gonna be?"

Morgan Freeman is currently promoting Now You See Me: Now You Don’t, where he reprises his role as Thaddeus Bradley, marking his first feature-film appearance since 2024’s Gunner and My Dead Friend Zoe, along with his recurring role in season 2 of Lioness.

The legendary actor remains beloved for iconic roles in The Shawshank Redemption, Driving Miss Daisy and The Dark Knight.
