Hollywood legend Steve Martin may be ready to embark on a new journey: retirement.

From "Saturday Night Live" to "Father of the Bride" to his current hit show "Only Murders in the Building," Martin has done it all. He is an Emmy and Grammy Award winner for his extensive work, which includes writing, acting, music, comedy and producing.

In his late 60’s, two things happened for Martin: he became a father and he saw a resurgence in his career.

Speaking to "The Hollywood Reporter," Martin says "There’s a time in your career when people are dying to see you…Now is the time in my career when I’m the one who’s got to show up."

However, he may not be showing up for much longer, as he says he will retire when "Only Murders in the Building" ends on Hulu.  The show, which stars his good friend and frequent collaborator Martin Short as well as Selena Gomez, was recently renewed for a third season.

Martin says, "When this television show is done, I’m not going to seek others. I’m not going to seek other movies. I don’t want to do cameos. This is, weirdly, it."

But for all you Steve Martin fans, there is hope! He goes on to tell The Hollywood Reporter "My wife keeps saying, ‘You always say you’re going to retire and then you always come up with something'… I'm really not interested in retiring. I'm not. But I would just work a little less. Maybe."

While he may not be working for much longer, Martin is clearly at the top of his game. He is currently nominated for Outstanding Lead Actor In A Comedy Series at the Emmys for his role as Charles Haden-Savage on his Hulu hit.
