He won well-deserved Oscars for his supporting roles in the last two films mentioned.
Caine performed his latest leading role in the touching drama Last Love. His upcoming movies include: Ella Graves, a thriller with Kate Beckinsale and Samuel L. Jackson; Imagine, a comedy/drama starring Al Pacino and Annette Bening; The Secret Service, an action thriller with Colin Firth, Lady Gaga and Samuel L. Jackson; Interstellar, a sci-fi mystery with Anne Hathaway and Matthew McConaughey.
In addition to his impressive acting credits, Michael Caine has written a fascinating autobiography titled What’s It All About? as well as other books about acting including the popular Acting in Film: An Actor’s Take on Movie Making.
