He’s done when he says he’s done. Bryan Cranston told GQ he’s planning to retire from acting, at least temporarily, in 2026. The “Breaking Bad” star said that in three years, he will shut down his production company and sell his half of Dos Hombres, the mezcal company he founded with Aaron Paul. He and his wife, Robin Dearden, will then head to another country, likely France, to live in a small village for at least six months. “I want to change the paradigm once again,” Cranston said. “For the last 24 years, Robin has led her life holding onto my tail. She’s been the plus one, she’s been the wife of a celebrity. She’s had to pivot and adjust her life based on mine. She has tremendous benefit from it, but we’re uneven. I want to level that out.” The actor added he “won’t be thinking about” work anymore, so if you were thinking of trying to send him a script, tread lightly.
