Some artists find it difficult to stop making art. Legendary Steve Martin says that he has never stopped making art because he enjoys it. “How long have I been doing comedy?”He asked facetiously The Hollywood Reporter. “60 years? I’m still having fun finding those things [bigger joke reactions.]”Yet, his hit show was not over. “Only Murders in the Building”Martin Short and Selena Gomez, among other artistic projects, were ready to slow down. Now it seems he’s more set on the idea of doing less–without saying the word retirement, of course.
“When this television show is done, I’m not going to seek others. I’m not going to seek other movies. I don’t want to do cameos,”He said. This, strangely, is it.” Still, Martin holds his popular live shows with Short dear. “The live show was a great success.” Martin shared (the current tour is hilariously titled, “Steve Martin and Martin Short’s “You Won’t Believe” What They Look Like Today”). “There may be a natural end to that — somebody gets sick, somebody just wears out — but I wouldn’t do it without Marty.”
Martin will continue to do shows with Short in the near future. But, outside of that, it seems like he is ready to retire and live a slower life with his family.
