There is a category of actors who, having played in several films, are disappointed in this profession and begin to live an ordinary life. They receive education and go to work in the same specialties that we do: teachers, cooks, waiters, doctors.
Some of them then yearn for their former glory, others understand that acting is not for them, and that ordinary life is much better for them. For example, Lucy Liu (in the main photo), who played in the films "Ellie McBeal" and "Charlie's Angels", is now working as an artist.
In our gallery are ex-stars who have changed their profession.
