Hollywood actor Kevin Spacey has said that he no longer cares about his movie career.

The star of American Beauty and The Usual Suspects told London Tonight he loved his role as artistic director of London's Old Vic theatre, a position he has held since 2003.

"I don't care about my personal acting career any more. I'm done with it," he said.

"After 10 years of making movies and going better than I ever could have imagined, I sort of had to ask myself: What am I supposed to do with all of this success that I have had?

"Am I just going to keep making movie after movie and be concerned with all of that 'Are you up, are you down, are you hot, are you not?', and I don't really care.

"What I care about is working with people, what I care about is the remarkable experience of being able to be a part of bringing people together."

Spacey, who won an Oscar for his role in the Sam Mendes-directed American Beauty, has acted in a number of productions at the Old Vic, including Richard II and Moon For The Misbegotten.

The theatre's 2007-08 season sees the artistic director taking a lead role in David Mamet's Speed-the-Plow, while Mendes will be directing The Tempest and Hamlet.

The season also includes Victorian thriller Gaslight, All About My Mother, based on the film by Pedro Almodovar and the Old Vic panto Cinderella, penned by actor and comedian Stephen Fry.

Lindsay Lohan

Brad Pitt
Angelina Jolie
