Russell Brand taking break from acting

Comedian Russell Brand plans to return to his comedy roots as his movie career has left him “unfulfilled”. Brand rose to fame as a TV presenter and stand-up comedian and later landed roles in movies like ‘Forgetting Sarah Marshall’, ‘Get Him to the Greek’ and a remake of Dudley Moore’s Arthur. But the 37-year-old star, who recently shared the screen with Tom Cruise in a recent movie musical ‘Rock Of Ages’, wants to take a break from acting and focus on his stand-up comedy show, ‘BrandX.’ “I started to feel a little bit unfulfilled. I missed being around an audience, I missed being really honest and truthful..,” the Daily Express quoted him as telling The Sunday Times Culture magazine. “People went, ‘Do you want to star in movies?’ I went, ‘All right, I’ll try all of that.’
