Breaking Bad actor Bryan Cranston couldn’t resist the retiring craze that has taken over the world. Don’t worry, he won’t retire from acting like Daniel Day-Lewis or touring like Elton John. Cranston will simply stop signing autographs for his fans.

“Friends, After 18 years of signing everything for fans – I’m retiring.” wrote Cranston on his Twitter profile. “Overwhelmed by requests and I just can’t do it anymore.”

Everything is not lost, however. The 61-year old will still be more than happy to take a picture with you.

“I love meeting fans and will personalize pix in person, but that’s all,” he added. “Thanks for your understanding. See you on the street – we’ll take a selfie! Bryan”

On his Facebook profile, Cranston decided to show what he is going through and posted a photo of himself behind a large stack of fan mail. We got you, Bryan, selfie it is!

Bryan Cranston rose to fame after his Emmy Award-winning portrayal of Walter White in AMC’s crime drama Breaking Bad. Before that he had a guest role in Seinfeld portraying Dr. Tim Whatley and was also terrific as Hal in Malcolm in the Middle.

After the success of Breaking Bad, Cranston became a highly sought after actor when it comes to movies as well, landing the roles in Godzilla, Trumbo, and The Infiltrator.

This wasn’t the first time he takes over the directing role since he previously directed seven episodes of Malcolm in the Middle and three episodes of Breaking Bad.
