Evangeline Lilly is setting down her Wasp stingers — at least for now.
The Ant-Man and the Wasp star, 44, announced in an Instagram post on Monday that she is “stepping away” from Hollywood for the foreseeable future. Alongside her post, Lilly shared a 2006 video of herself sharing her dreams for the future, which included becoming a “retired actress,” starting a family, and focusing on humanitarian work.
“I am so filled with joy and contentment today as I live out my vision. Praise God, I feel so grateful for my blessings,” Lilly captioned the post. “Stepping away from what seems like the obvious choice (wealth and fame) can feel scary at times, but stepping into your dharma replaces the fear with fulfillment. I might return to Hollywood one day, but, for now, this is where I belong.”
She concluded, “A new season has arrived, and I AM READY...and I AM HAPPY.”
