Hollywood actor Miles Teller has said that he is here to stay, and is “not retiring from acting anytime soon”. The actor said after he cashed out on a drinks brand.
The 39-year-old actor had a “minority stake” in a beverage company, and he is now set to pocket a big chunk of cash, reports ‘Female First UK’.
Speaking about the payout, the actor refused to say how much he will take home, telling The Hollywood Reporter, “I don’t really talk numbers. I was always taught that’s not in good taste. All I’ll say is that I’m not retiring from acting anytime soon”.
However, the ‘Top Gun: Maverick’ star said the sale, which he regards as “an opportunity to continue to scale”, may influence him to produce and fund films about “underdog stories”.
He said, “I really like chip-on-the-shoulder characters, odds stacked against you, a person or a community. This gives me a lot of confidence to trust my instincts. I’ve been producing for the last several years. Certain actors can get movies made on different budgets. If you can say, ‘Hey, I’m attached to this thing, let me find a director, and what actors do we like for this, do I have relationships with them?’. So, it certainly helps”. (IANS)
