Since then, Pierre Arditi seems to have regained his strength. To our colleagues from Ouest-France, the actor who will celebrate his 80th birthday on December 1st assured in October that he “is not doing badly, but as General de Gaulle said, I will not fail to die one day! ” On the other hand, the actor still has several projects and does not intend to retire from acting immediately.
Pierre Arditi will indeed soon be on tour in France and Belgium for which he will perform, from January 2025, a new play. “I will have all the time to retire,” he says. “Being an actor is a lifestyle choice and a reward. We don’t want it to stop.” He explains that his “breathing” is theater. “Life is what drives me. It’s a precious object, a gift that someone lends you. But it’s not a bank. If you save it, you don’t earn interest in the end. So, I ‘stuff my face’ with life.”
