Alec Baldwin contemplates retiring

London(ANI): Actor Alec Baldwin has hinted at his plan to retire from acting.

The actor, whose stint on TV show 30 Rock ends in the next three years, has said that he plans to quit in 2012. "In March 2012, I''ll wake up and say, ''What am I going to do now? Am I done?'' I think I will be done. I may finish a play or something, but I''m retiring at the wrap party," The Daily Express quoted him as telling Playboy magazine.

The Cooler star is looking forward to a peaceful family life after he calls it quits. "I have this silly fantasy; I get married again, I have a kid. I''d love another shot at that, with everything I''ve learned.

"My kid''s, like, eight, comes home and says, ''Dad, Jimmy''s mom says you were a famous actor on TV and in the movies. Is that true?'' And I go, ''Yes, Johnny, dad was famous.'' I whip out my scrapbooks and my DVDs and say, ''Believe it or not, that''''s your dad.'' And my kid''s like, ''You used to be on TV and everything? And now you stay home and just clean the house all day while mom works?'' ''That''s right, son," he added.
