Paul
Newman
has
announced
he
is
quitting
Hollywood
aged
82.
The
'Butch
Cassidy
and
the
Sundance
Kid'
star
plans
to
run
an
organic
restaurant
near
his
Westport
home
in
Connecticut.
He
told
US
TV
show
'Good
Morning
America':
"I've
been
doing
it
for
50
years.
That's
enough.
I'm
not
able
to
act
any
more
at
the
level
I
would
want
to."
Newman
won
an
Oscar
in
1986
for
'The
Color
of
Money',
for
his
portrayal
of
Fast
Eddie
Felson
-
a
former
pool
star
who
teaches
a
promising
player,
played
by
Tom
Cruise,
how
to
hustle.
Newman
was
last
seen
on
screen
in
2002,
starring
alongside
Tom
Hanks
and
Jude
Law
in
'Road
to
Perdition',
which
was
directed
by
Sam
Mendes.
However,
his
final
role
saw
him
voice
the
character
of
Doc
Hudson
in
last
year's
hit
animated
movie
'Cars'.
It
was
believed
Newman
would
be
reunited
with
costar
Robert
Redford
-
his
'Butch
Cassidy'
and
'The
Sting'
co-star
-
but
his
retirement
plans
have
dashed
the
hopes
of
fans.
