Los Angeles, Dec 16 (PTI) Actor-comedian Ricky Gervais has decided to take a year off from movies and sitcoms.
The 55-year-old star wants to focus on his stand-up comedy tour, 'Humanity', in 2017.
"No more new movies or sitcoms for at least a year from me - Stand Up all the way in 2017! (sic)," Gervais wrote on Twitter.
In his successful career the actor has appeared in "The Office," "Extras" and "Derek," while he has also played a starring role in "Muppets Most Wanted" and "Night at the Museum: Secret of the Tomb".
Gervais' announcement comes shortly after he admitted he has always "feared fame" and constantly worries about being labelled a "horrible" celebrity.
