Joaquin Phoenix confirmed Saturday night at the premiere of his latest film, “Two Lovers” that he was leaving acting by flashing “good bye” on his knuckles.

“I think it’s just moving on. It’s rediscovering something else,” said Phoenix, “It’s like greener pastures, you know what I mean? And so, I’m just going to try and like, I’ll just be doing the other thing. … Hopefully, I will emotionally impact you with that, as well.”

I know that we will miss his acting. I think he could have had a great career. But sometimes we have to do what we have to do. I bet he’ll be back. Anyone want to bet me?
