HOLLYWOOD - Sean Connery is expected to officially announce he is quitting Hollywood when he collects his Lifetime Achievement Award at the American Film Institute (AFI) later this year.
Connery, who is recuperating after undergoing surgery to remove a kidney tumor in January, plans to spend his time writing books instead.
He says, "I have retired for good. It's been a bit rough since Christmas but I'm perfectly OK and I feel well. In fact, I'm working on a history book."
Harrison Ford, meanwhile, is campaigning for the actor to return to the screen for the upcoming fourth Indiana Jones movie.
