Ian Somerhalder And Nikki Reed Confirmed They've Quit Acting And Spoke About What They're Doing Instead
Ian Somerhalder confirmed in a new interview that he's quit acting.
For context, The Vampire Diaries star's last acting role was in the 2019 series V-Wars. He and wife Nikki Reed moved to a farm outside LA together, and Ian himself said in November that he left Hollywood "to raise my kids, build my companies, and get these films launched."
Indeed, Ian recently executive-produced the soil health documentary Common Ground alongside other famous faces like Laura Dern and Jason Momoa. At a recent screening of the documentary, he spoke with E! News about the shift in his career.
When asked if he missed acting, Ian replied, "I loved what I did for a really long time. I don't miss any of it."
"I love making films. I just did it for so long. We had an amazing run," he said, looking at his wife. "The community and the family that is a set... But this is our 2.0 version, about to be 3.0 version."
"Although I wish we had more time on the farm," Nikki added. "We're running multiple businesses."
