During a recent interview with Access Hollywood, the Sonic the Hedgehog 2 The actor who played Dr. Robotnik mentioned that he felt he had “done enough” and that any future projects would depend on the script.

Here’s exactly what he had to say, courtesy of Variety:

“Well, I’m retiring. Yes, probably. I’m pretty serious… It depends. If the angels bring some kind of script written in gold ink and tell me it’s going to be really important for people to see, I might go ahead, but I’ll take a break.

“I really like my quiet life and I really like putting paint on canvas and I really love my spiritual life and I feel — and that’s something you might never hear another celebrity say as long as the Time exists – I’ve had enough. I’ve done enough I am enough.”
