Cate Blanchett Says She Is ‘Serious About Giving Up Acting’

The two-time Academy Award winner says she has long struggled with fame and is now considering other directions in life.

Cate Blanchett has said she is seriously considering stepping away from acting, citing other personal interests and a long-standing discomfort with public attention. In a recent interview with Radio Times, the two-time Academy Award winner stated that her family often dismisses her comments about retiring, but she remains firm in her intent.

“My family roll their eyes every time I say it, but I mean it. I am serious about giving up acting,” Blanchett said. “There are a lot of things I want to do with my life.”

Blanchett is currently featured in BBC Radio 4’s upcoming drama The Fever. The interview also touched on her ongoing discomfort with public appearances and celebrity culture. Speaking about the experience of being quoted out of context, she said, “When you go on a talk show, or even here now, and then you see soundbites of things you’ve said, pulled out and italicized, they sound really loud. I’m not that person.”

“I make more sense in motion,” she added. “It’s been a long time to remotely get comfortable with the idea of being photographed.”

Blanchett described herself as someone who often feels outside the mainstream. “I’ve always felt like I’m on the periphery of things, so I’m always surprised when I belong anywhere,” she said. “I go with curiosity into whatever environment that I’m in, not expecting to be accepted or welcomed.”

That sense of disconnection has accompanied her throughout a career that spans stage, film, and television. Earlier this year at the Rotterdam Film Festival, Blanchett discussed her initial career ambitions. “I was resigned, happily, to a career in theater,” she said. “I didn’t think I was that girl. There was a sense women had a certain shelf life in the film industry and a certain type of women got to parade on the screen and others didn’t.”

Her breakout role came in 1998 as Queen Elizabeth I in Elizabeth, which earned her a BAFTA and an Academy Award nomination. She went on to play Galadriel in Peter Jackson’s The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit trilogies, and starred in Blue Jasmine, The Aviator, TÁR, Carol, Babel, and The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. Her performance in Blue Jasmine won her an Oscar for Best Actress in 2013, and she received Best Supporting Actress in 2005 for The Aviator.

She was also co-artistic director of the Sydney Theatre Company between 2008 and 2013, working alongside her husband Andrew Upton, who continued in the position until 2015.

Blanchett most recently starred in Steven Soderbergh’s espionage thriller Black Bag, opposite Michael Fassbender. The film has earned $21 million at the domestic box office. She will next appear in Jim Jarmusch’s ensemble film Father, Mother, Sister, Brother, acting opposite Adam Driver. The cast also includes Vicky Krieps, Mayim Bialik, Tom Waits, Charlotte Rampling, Indya Moore, and Luka Sabbat.

She has recently returned to the stage as well, performing in London’s West End in a new production of Anton Chekhov’s The Seagull.

Blanchett has also spoken in recent years about her interest in different formats and media. In addition to her role in The Fever, her work has included producing, voice acting, and advocacy for various global initiatives focused on the environment and humanitarian issues.

Her remarks have drawn attention not just for the suggestion that she may step away from acting, but for the broader reflection on the demands of visibility in her profession. “I’ve spent a lifetime getting comfortable with the feeling of being uncomfortable,” she said.

While Blanchett has not announced a specific plan or timeframe, her comments signal a potential shift in how she views the future of her career.
