Actor, comedian and musician Jack Black, tells HuffPost UK why he's looking to the day he gives up movie-acting, why there are fewer screen roles he wants to take and he’s tired of playing the loveable loser.

Jack Black says:

“One movie left, and then it’s goodnight everybody,”

“At the beginning I was so thrilled to have a part, that first big great part in ‘High Fidelity’ opened up the universe to me, and I was getting all these offers, and then I did a few other films and then I did ‘School of Rock’, and that was where all the planets aligned and that was the best possible situation.”

“And then you start going ‘Ok, I’ve already done that kind of thing, I’ve done the loveable loser, I’ll do another loveable loser, I’ll do this and that,’ and then you say, ‘I don’t want to do another loveable loser, just because I’m bored of it,’ so then you start narrowing things down and saying no more and more, until I arrive at this place, where I’ve done so many things, it keeps on narrowing the things I want to do that are left.”

“I just try to live it, try to make it feel like it’s true in my bones. Even if it looks like I’m overacting to the moon, I’m just trying to be true to myself and make it real,” he says modestly.
