After his Oscar-winning turn as
former US President Abraham Lincoln, actor Daniel Day-Lewis
has said he is taking a break from films.
The London-born actor, 55, wants a break because he fears
he could never top his performance in Lincoln, reported
Daily Star.
His role as the US President made him the first star in
history to scoop three Best Actor awards.
"I don't have any projects lined up - I haven't got
anything planned for a length of time. I can't imagine what I
would try to do after playing Lincoln," he said.
Day-Lewis finished filming the historical epic over a
year ago but has refused to sign up for any future roles.
"I haven't even started contemplating what's next. But I
know if I do think about doing another role it would seem
really inconceivable," he added.
