Aaron Eckhart’s Two Years of Giving Up

The American actor Aaron Eckhart was brilliant in movies such as “The Core,” “Thank You for Smoking,” or the fan-favorite “The Dark Knight.” But in 2016, he shocked his fans by announcing that he no longer thought about being a star and was ready to give up on Hollywood.

Eckhart stuck to his promise for two years before making an understated return with the 2018 TV series “The Romanoffs.” Now ready to give it a more serious go, he’s one of the actors featured in the 2022 TV series “The First Lady,” starring Viola Davis and Michelle Pfeiffer.
