Sean Penn doesn't like acting anymore, will probably keep writing dumb books
Sean Penn hasn’t done a ton of acting over the last few years, aside from an appearance in The Angry Birds Movie and that dictionary thing he made with Mel Gibson that has been mired in a lawsuit for a while, and it sounds like we won’t be seeing him in too many movies in the future, either. In an upcoming appearance on CBS Sunday Morning (via Entertainment Weekly), Penn reveals that he no longer enjoys acting like he used to. “It can be great when you’re working with good actors or good directors or good writing,” he says, but he doesn’t know if those experiences have “a lasting value.” He adds that he’s “not in love with that anymore” and hasn’t been “for some time.”
