He might be one of Hollywood’s biggest stars, and he’s only 26 years old, but Aaron Taylor-Johnson has said he is thinking of giving up acting to focus on his home life. The actor revealed his plans in an interview and brooding photoshoot with the Mr Porter magazine.
The star of Nocturnal Animals, who has two young children, and says that fatherhood is his most important role he has ever taken on. He said ‘I get more fulfilment from being a father than I do from being an actor. I’m still constantly wanting to give it up.’ He revealed that he gets much more enjoyment out of cooking for his children and doing the gardening rather than being on a movie set.
Johnson has also spoken about his relationship with his wife and how happy they are – despite the fact that she is double his age. Though he has admitted that he doesn’t think about the fact that she is significantly older. He said ‘I don’t really analyse our relationship, I just know that it works. I just feel secure and loved and safe. We have this very deep connection. We’re just in synch.’
The couple met back in 2009 when they were both working on the biopic of the Beetles story – Nowhere Boy.
