who's really going to take seriously as a musician? and does he plan on writing his own songs? sounds like throwing the baby out with the bathwater to me (or just a rouse after a few bad box office receipts) but good luck to him. More

Quite a surprise.
Anyone else notice that Wacky Phoenix has become quie dull and depressing lately, in interviews anyway (going down the Harrison Ford route) More

I'm a huge fan, as most people here know, so I'm obviously shocked and upset about it. But whatever makes him happy is always good and I have a sneaking suspicion his music will fare better than the usual actor-to-singer stuff. I hope he does act again one day. More

He'll be back. How many actors have tried the singing route and failed? More

I always liked Joaquin when he was outstanding in Gladiator and brillant in Walk The Line. I was shocked of this news, he's a excellent actor but to do singing? Well, that's up to him but I will miss him and I will see his last movie on the big screen. Probably cry on that day. I wish him well for his new direction, I hope it does good for him and who knows? He might be a great singer and won't come back to Hollywood. More

I think Joaquin is a very talented actor, but judging by his Walk The Line vocals, it looks like he could be a good singer also. If this is the case, and he can forge a succesfull/semi-succesfull career in music, then I don't think we will see Phoenix on the screen any time soon. More

Best of luck to him and all, but I have a sneaking suspicion that he'll be back to acting after 2-3 years. More

well i must admit its a bold step to take but why not have a go! however i do think that Phoenix is an under rated actor and under-used in a lot of films. hope he doesnt turn his back on the silver screen however i must admit the film i think he is outstanding was walk the line and the sound track is excellent!

He will probably return, he is too young to quit. But also he said that he couldn't quit before because he is never happy with what he does, so he really should have quit at Walk the line and not now. So he is doomed to return to rectify his work. He is also a good singer so I think he'll manage that pretty well;) More

Is he really any good? Other than Walk The Line I've never thought he was particularly convincing. His performance in Gladiator was especially bad. Good luck to him, but I'm in no rush to see his return to the screen. More

Blimey. That boy's got presence and an undeniable sense of passion (at least in his better roles). What a shame. Hopefully he'll be back by 2010. Oh, and what's it with those rumours that Sean Connery's returning? More

Great actor, and his talents will be missed. But, I suppose, if this is what's gonna make him happy, reach for the stars. And who knows? I might end up buying his album... More

Empire puts across why Phoenix may have quit quite well. It should also be noted he's never watched any of his films. I wish him luck with his singing career as his voice was quite good in Walk the Line, but I hope one day he'll return to acting. More
