'Oppenheimer' star ready to quit acting on one condition
Jason Clarke sets record straight on prioritising family over career
Jason Clarke would happily quit acting on one condition.
Speaking with People Magazine, the Oppenheimer star shared that he would always put his family first.
Clarke, who shares two children with wife Cecile Breccia, admitted that if his wife wake up "one day" and ask him to quit acting, he would.
He said, "I really would."
Adding, "I've got no complaints with what I've done. It's important for my family to be happy. I love them a lot."
Additionally, Clarke went on to explain that when he is choosing projects, it involves a "lost of figuring out the logistics" with Breccia and kids.
"You can't do it without a partner like I have," the Murdaugh: Death in the Family star noted.
He said, "We live a good life. We enjoy our travel together. Who knows where we're going to be at some point, really."
Notably, he asks himself before signing on to a job if he has "the energy to do that now?"
"The 25-year-old in me goes, 'Man I want to go and do it.' Then, I think, 'I've got two kids in school.' There's all this give and take, and then, boom, you're lucky enough to work with someone like Kathryn Bigelow in A House of Dynamite," Clarke admitted.
On the other hand, Clarke also talked about fatherhood, saying, "I want to be a great father, whatever that entails, and that is a lot of up and down."
"I can show them the way, I can teach them things and all that, but I want to make sure that they feel like their life is their own, like mine was for me. That's what my parents gave me," he added.
Known for the role of Roger Robb in Oppenheimer, Jason Clarke is currently starring as murderer Alex Murdaugh in Murdaugh: Death in the Family.
