Sean Penn is taking a break from Hollywood, and Hollywood ain’t happy about it.
Sean announced to the teams of his two upcoming movies that he would be taking some time off and would not be acting in any projects, pulling out of BOTH films!
One said project is the highly anticipated and talked about film The Three Stooges, also starring Jim Carey and Benicio del Toro.
Penn came to the producers and explained he would no longer be available as he was taking time to focus on his family, which we don’t quite understand as he already dodged a bullet last month and is still married to Robin Wright Penn. There is no word yet on how long this “break” will last, which has the Farrelly brothers, Peter and Bobby, in a serious predicament.
The directors have spent many years trying to get this film off the ground and they were slated to begin production at the end of August. But now the question becomes whether or not to wait for Penn to return (if he even does) or hire a new actor to take his place?
We’ll just have to wait and see what happens, but it is somewhat baffling that Sean chose now to leave the limelight. Midlife crisis perhaps? Or is Robin making him stay home?
