Renée Zellweger Stopped Acting for Six Years Because ‘I Was Sick of the Sound of My Own Voice’: It Was Regurgitating the ‘Same Emotional Experiences’

Renée Zellweger stopped acting for six years because she was so sick of her own voice.

Renée Zellweger said in an interview with her longtime “Bridget Jones” co-star Hugh Grant for British Vogue that it was the sound of her voice that led her to stop acting for more than half a decade in the 2010s.

Elsewhere during their British Vogue chat, Grant asked Zellweger if she ever reads her movie reviews or checks out the box office results for her projects.
