Dick Van Dyke is working on a one-man show
The legendary actor – who turned 98 in December – has revealed that he’s eager to create his own one-man show, explaining that he has “a lot of stories to tell”.
The movie star – who made his Broadway debut in the 1950s – told PEOPLE: “I was thinking of doing – 80 years in the business, I have a lot of stories to tell. I thought I’d just do a one-man show, like this. Just sit and talk to the audience.”
Asked if his ambition is likely to be realised, Dick replied: “I’ve got a list. I’m pretty close.”
Earlier this month, Dick described his workout routine as his “secret weapon”.
The veteran actor does three gym sessions a week at the age of 98, and he believes that it’s the key to his good health.
Speaking to ‘Entertainment Tonight’, he shared: “I recommend it to everybody. That’s my secret weapon.”
The award-winning star feels that actors are in a privileged position.
Dick admitted that he’s had “such a good time” during his decades-long career in the movie business.
The ‘Chitty Chitty Bang Bang’ actor – who received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame back in 2012 – shared: “It isn’t work – it’s play. Actors are so lucky. I’ve had such a good time.”
Despite this, Dick suggested that he’s the last actor of his kind in Hollywood.
The iconic movie star said: “I think I’m the last of my generation, really. I’m 98. I have almost all my marbles. I can’t remember what I had for breakfast.”
