Don’t anticipate catching Ian Somerhalder back on screen any time soon — he’s set acting aside for the moment, with no intentions of returning.
During the Environmental Media Association Awards Gala, Ian opened up about embracing every bit of his tranquil farm life alongside actress wife Nikki Reed and their two little ones — to the point that he feels his entertainment career is now “behind him.”
However, Ian took a moment to reflect — he conveyed to PEOPLE that he has just recently regained the rights to “V Wars,” the sci-fi series from 2019 in which both he and Nikki participated … yet he’s uncertain about how to revive it into a new show.
Currently, he shares that both he and Nikki are fully engaged in “establishing three companies at once, while raising their little ones” — which means they have their hands more than full!
This year, Ian candidly discussed retreating from the entertainment industry back in 2019 — declaring that he doesn’t miss the allure and charm of Hollywood even a little.
Nikki also shared her thoughts, conveying to E! News how much they both cherish witnessing their children grow.
