Michael Caine’s representatives have apparently refuted reports that the actor is retiring from film.
The film is due to begin shooting next year, with Caine’s Inception and The Dark Knight co-star Cillian Murphy in the lead role.
During an interview with Simon Mayo, the veteran British star caused a stir by referring to the recently released comedy-drama Best Sellers as “his last part”.
Caine, who began acting in 1950, has more than 130 film credits to his name.
