Tilda Swinton hints at retirement, says ‘Room Next Door’ might be the ‘last film I make’

She might be stepping back. 

Tilda Swinton said her new drama with Julianne Moore, “The Room Next Door,” may be her final film. 

“I’ve always intended that each film would be my final one,” Swinton, 64, told Elle in a recent interview.

“It was not wanting to jinx anything because I have had such fun from start to finish. I always thought, ‘Well, that’s a good one to go out on. Let’s just quit while we’re ahead.’ And I feel it today.”

The British actress added, “I feel ‘The Room Next Door’ is the last film I make. Let’s see if anything else happens.”

If Swinton does retire, she’d be finishing a career that has lasted over 30 years, won her an Oscar, and seen her in a wide variety of films, from “Burn After Reading” to “Snowpiercer” to “The Grand Budapest Hotel” to the “Chronicles of Narnia” series.

Swinton would join the ranks of Oscar winner Daniel Day-Lewis, 67, who also retired — although he can’t seem to stay retired.

Swinton already has another movie in the works, so her words may not be quite true. 

She’ll be in Netflix’s “The Ballad of A Small Player,” co-starring Colin Farrell. 

According to a synopsis from Netflix, the movie is about “a high-stakes gambler laying low in Macau [who] encounters a kindred spirit who might just hold the key to his salvation.”

“The Room Next Door” follows Ingrid (Moore) and Martha (Swinton), two women in their 60s who were friends in their youth but haven’t seen each other in years. Ingrid is an author in the art world, while Martha was a war correspondent. They reconnect when Ingrid learns that Martha has cancer. John Turturro co-stars. 

Swinton told Elle, “The subject really is power. The feeling of powerlessness that we have to engage with around mortality, or, by the way, around aging. We have to get with the program: We are powerless.”

The “Only Lovers Left Alive” actress added, “And that in and of itself is a sort of taboo.”

At a Venice press conference for ‘The Room Next Door’ earlier this year, Swinton said, “I personally am not frightened of death, and I have never been. I think the whole journey toward accepting death can be long for some people for some reason. And for certain experiences in my life, it came quite early. I know it’s coming. I feel it coming. I see it coming.”

“The Room Next Door,” which won the Golden Lion at the Venice Film Festival, will have a limited theatrical release Dec. 20.
