Washington: Hugh Grant has revealed that he is seriously thinking of giving up acting - because he freezes up on camera.The actor has joked about retiring in past - but now he`s starting to think it`s best if he steps away from the camera.
"I like everything about filming except the acting. I`m wonderful in rehearsals, but I`ve never been very good when they actually switch the cameras on,” an entertainment website quoted him as telling Entertainment Weekly magazine. "In recent years, I`ve had really bad attacks, where I totally freeze up. I thought, ``Well, if I`m going to get stage fright, then I`m packing it in,``" he added. However, Grant also said that that he`ll have to either seriously quit acting or stop talking about quitting: "I feel foolish having said so often, ``Oh, I don`t want to do any more (films).`` And then I always do."
