No surprise that Oscar nominated actor Joaquin Phoenix who adamantly declared his retirement from acting and documented his ridiculous trails to become a rapper to no avail, is back in the saddle again.

Here’s Phoenix luckily getting back to his thespian reality with Marion Cotillard filming romantic drama ‘Low Life’ in NYC., The pictured centers around an innocent immigrant woman who is tricked into a life of burlesque.

Good choice Phoenix.

By the way, his goofyt documentary “I’m Still Here” filmed by brother-n-law Casey Affleck is so bizarre that it’s good.
