Winstone to take acting hiatus
RAY WINSTONE is planning to take time away from the spotlight - because he's struggling to land any new acting roles.
The Brit was set to film a big screen remake of cult 1970s cop show The Sweeney later this year (10), but the project was scrapped due to financial problems - and he admits his script offers have slowed down.
But the Sexy Beast star is hoping to make the most of his career lull - by spending time with his three daughters and wife Elaine.
He tells GMTV, "Hopefully, I'll have a break now. I've got no work to do now, I'm unemployed. It's been a long time since I've been unemployed. I'll enjoy it - I can see the family."
