Matthew Fox’s TV career will end with the final episode of Lost.
Fox, who plays Dr. Jack Shephard on Lost, stated that he wishes to spend more time with his family and less time working. Matthew Fox told WENN,
I am not going to do television again. I have done two TV shows – Lost and Party of Five – that have each run for 6 years. I want to find a way to have more control over when I am working and when I’m not.
I am 42 and a father of two children and I don’t want to miss them growing up. I don’t want to find myself 10 years from now feeling like I was an absentee father because I was so focused on my career.
Don’t we all wish we could take a break from working and spend more time with our families? Fortunately for Matthew, he’s earned enough moola to take an indefinite break from working.
What do you think?
