And yet, Rick Moranis called it quits in 2003 after voicing the role of Rett in the animated film Brother Bear. Since then, his voice has been used for spinoffs from Brother Bear as well as The Adventures of Bob and Doug McKenzie. But, in 2020, he decided to make a comeback in a new sequel to the Honey, I Shrunk the Kids series called “Shrunk” which is currently under production.
But what was the reason why Rick Moranis left Hollywood 20+ years ago? He’s now confirmed why he left and the reasons why he decided to step away from a successful career and how he feels about the change in lifestyle. But before we learn about why he quit, let’s learn about how he got started.
Rick Moranis was born in Toronto on April 18, 1953 and began his career as a radio disc jockey in the 1970s. He realized that he had a knack for comedy and along with his colleagues would perform comedy sketches on the radio and eventually in live performances. The next step was obviously to appear on television and in the cinema.
The 1970s is when Rick Moranis began his career but it was the 1980s when his career really took off. He came at just the right time to appear in many of the blockbuster comedies that are now considered classics - such as The Ghostbusters films and Spaceballs. In the 1990s, he continued this success with the Honey I Shrunk The Kids series and films such as Parenthood and My Blue Heaven.

Okay cool your title for this video was pretty straight forward. No need for the back story on who Rick Moranis is or was. I just ended up skipping through the video to find out why Rick Moranis left Hollywood 20 years ago. You mentioned what movies he was in for your intro and that was enough info for me. Personally in my opinion it helps to keep things simple and to the point and now I'll go ahead and see why Rick Moranis left Hollywood 20 years ago. If anyone else feels the same as me about this video give me a like.
Rick Moranis knows where his priorities are...raising his children. He was a good actor and will always be a good actor. My favorite movie was "Honey, I Shrunk The Kids," looking forward to his new release.
Well said, we strongly concur! Thank you for watching our content and for sharing your thoughts. What other types of video would you like to see?
It wouldn't hurt for him to make a special appearance in Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire
He knew to get his family away from that lifestyle
@@lance-pc1qz yes, he did!
As sad as I was to see Rick Moranis quit acting I respect his decision. He was always traveling for work and wasn't around his family much. Family comes first and I'm glad he's happy raising his kids and made a successful change in career for himself
Love "Spaceballs", and "Little Shop Of Horrors".
Our favorites too, you've got taste! What other types of video would you like to see?
And don't forget his appearances in the first two Ghostbusters movies.😂
I absolutely _LOVED_ Rick's role in Spaceballs. Quirky, sassy, spicy, smartass, unique all his own. My 2nd fav role was Louis in Ghostbusters.
I applaud him for getting out of the scene! It's perhaps the unhealthiest business you can be in, at least mentally.
I think his Dark Helmet role was his best! And I really liked him in My Blue Heaven.
Absolutely, we feel the same way! Thank you for sharing your sentiments and for watching our content. What other types of video would you like to see on our channel?
I remembered hearing about that. As much as I enjoyed his work, I could understand as much as possible
Amazing comical genius my favorite movies were Ghostbusters Honey I Shrunk The Kids Ghostbusters 2 Spaceballs a great actor my heart goes out to him regarding his wife's passing I've met this aunt Marilyn what a lovely woman but that was roughly 20 years ago
He has his priorities right. Kudos to him ❣️ Hollywood could learn a lot from him. Thank you!! Perfection as always 😊
Love Spaceballs 😂😂😂 He was hilarious in it
I miss this dude.
Glad to know that you're a fan of Rick. What is your favorite role of his?
I loved Rick Moranis in The Flintstones.

@@FactsVerse I'm not sure really, but I'll keep watching and let you know. 😎
Loved SCTV and the whole brilliant cast. Couldn't imagine Ricks's character in GhostBusters being done by anyone else, he was terrific....
Us too! Thank you for bringing back memories. Which episode of SCTV appealed to you the most?
Absolute legend, hoping he leaves a new masterpiece for this next generation.
SCTV is an all time favorite!
So much talent and comedy!
I would rather watch reruns of SCTV than Saturday Night Live from the past 30 years til today. It was on WNBC TV ch.4 New York after the Tommorrow Show with Tom Snyder ended at 1.00 AM Saturday night.
SCTV featured among others John Candy, Eugene Levy. Joe Flaherty, Catherine O'Hara, Andrea Martin, Martin Short, Dave Thomas and Rick Moranis. All comic genius'
We're glad to know that you love the show. Thank you for sharing your thoughts. If we may ask, which episode did you like the best?
SCTV was such a HUGE thing in my high school and the McKenzie brothers skits was always hit. (Ya Hosehead 😂😂😂) My personal favorite is his role in “My Blue Heaven”. To this day, when either one of us tries to get out of the car with the seatbelt still on, we call it “Rick Moranis” move. 😂 I’m so glad he’s coming back. Thank you 😊 for creating this great video. ✌🏻💖🌺
Cause he don't want to be a industry puppet and have them suck life out of him.
We absolutely agree! Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts. Be safe and have a great day!
A sensible and intelligent decision from a very talented performer.
Really is one of my favorite actors of all time. Such an underrated actor. He always felt like he wasn’t a good actor and was actually a comedian, but I disagree. He was a phenomenal actor and really shined in scenes where he wasn’t being funny. What sold me on his acting ability is funnily the Flintstones movie. He had a number of scenes where Barney Rubble was serious, upset, disappointed, downtrodden, happy, or angry, and he played those scenes perfectly. He really made me believe that Barney was feeling those things. It usually happens that way too. A comedic actor plays in a film where the character isn’t just a slapstick goofball, and they are able to shine and show just what they are capable of as an actor. Robin Williams did it, even Adam Sandler the monumental goofy childish adult did it. Comedians always surprise you when they are allowed to play a serious role.
Fun stuff, thanks for sharing! We're glad to know that you're a fan of Rick. What other types of video would you like to see on our channel?
Amazing actor, and I can respect his decision to stop when it felt right. Just thankful for what he did give us.
We need him BUT I would love to see him back in the lime light
We absolutely agree! Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts. Be safe and have a great day!
I remember seeing him on SCTV and his first movie Strange Brew with Dave Thomas. He was very funny and a great actor with whatever roles given him. From playing an overly concerned father over his little girls' IQ and becoming a genius in the movie Parenthood to Dark Helmet in Spaceballs he was good at any role. It's sad about losing his wife to cancer but he stepped up as a father and took time away from his career for his kids which says a lot.
Little shop of horrors, honey i shrank the kids, spaceballs, ghost busters. Ive loved him since i was a kid. ❤❤
I always respected Rick Morales good man may the good Lord continue blessing him.
lets not forget his role as Barney Rubble in The Flintstones with John Goodman
Best Hollywood Dad🎬
Patton Oswald ties for the honor💁🏼♀️♥️
He really needs to show up on the new Ghostbusters movie that's coming out next year please rick
I think he made the right choice. He had his priorities straight family first. Not a lot of actors have their priorities straight.
His potrayal of Barney Rubble in the Flintstone's movie is one of his few roles where he's not wearing glasses.
Thanks for the memories, hoser.

@@FactsVerse more General human interest stuff about the actors and actresses or about the films and TV shows. Try to stay away from salacious stuff such as their personal sexualities or interests in such areas. It's really Nobody's Business and it's really helping to coursen in our society which is already gotten pretty
Coursened. I don't think it's necessary to put these people whether Dead or Alive under a microscope like that. I don't believe it's treating them with any dignity. Whatever foibles they may have had or have we should not turn it into somebody's amusement. I know it will mean harder work for you while because you'll have to be more creative and it will certainly piss off people who want more salacious or sexual material but whatever you cover about these performers in movies and films stage Productions should always be done with dignity and decency and not treating them like Zoo specimens. Society has become too tolerant of traditionally unacceptable sexualities and in my view that's extremely unfortunate but really is any of that material our business? And when it's presented as entertainment it really reflects poorly on all of you because it's only purpose is sexual entertainment of listeners. So tell us more about there family backgrounds growing up patient in the things that influenced them that took them into that profession. If they did any good in the world then tell us about that. Of course that will be very boring to those who want salacious material. Some respondents to my comments has made it clear what they want and it speaks volumes of their nature and character. In the end you have to choose the direction of this channel and where you want to take it. Thank you for asking.
I first saw him in Ghostbusters, where he made an immeasurable contribution. He will always be Louis Tully to me!...🤓

Big fan here. Was great on SCTV.
Rick Moranis was sunny on snl

I found him funny in Space Balls and could sympathize with him in My Blue Heaven. I knew nothing of his personal life.

@@FactsVerse Tell me things I know little about as you have in the past.
Do you want some coffee Mr Tully? Do I? "Yes have some" "yes have some" 😅
Kids today don't realize how good he was
So true! What other types of video would you like to see?
Shrunk will go big in the box offices
I love Rick moreanus
Us too! Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts. What other types of video would you like to see?
I knew Rick left the Spot Light to care for his kids, I did not know that his wife had died from cancer. Bummer.
If know ones hears of it Little Shop Of Horrors is a good movie he stars in
Really had hoped he would have been in the new Ghostbusters
Of course, no one ever mentions my absolute favorite serious role, parenthood. And if you try to look it up, you'll get "the parent hood "
I hope he is still doing okay

I miss you Rick your a ghostbuster
He needs to go back into Ghostbusters
Little Giants! 🤘
Parenthood was great too
Skip to 3:40
You went over my helmet )
This channel used to bump back in the day, seems dry now
Well done Rick. Also for not making a brief appearance together with the original Ghostbusters in the weak last movie. That film was basically a remake of the first movie, only featuring kids and taking place in the desert, with a small dose of nostalgia at the end. Nothing new there indeed.
In the 80s he was the king of the nerds.

I’m a fan
Glad to know that you're a fan of Rick. In your opinion, what is his finest role?
Brilliant top 50 of all time comic actors male & female.Sad there's a large chunk of his life NOT acting,due to Hollywood stupidity,so famous for getting it wrong.
We absolutely agree! Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts. Be safe and have a great day!
No mention of little giants
Because he was the 🗝 master

I love him. I can’t believe someone attacked him. I wish he would leave New York he deserves better.

Nothing in the video, sourced from RM, gives any new insight to hus reasoning
Noooooo
I was pretty mad when that black guy punched him a few years ago.
Yes, we remember it too! Thanks for bringing back memories. What other types of video would you like to see on our channel?
The man wanted to raise his kids. It’s not hard to understand.
But he also had enough money to be a stay at home dad. Not many parents have that opportunity because they need to work to support their spouse and kids.
He just doesn't have what it takes to be an actor anymore he's washed up and that's why he doesn't do anything anymore because he doesn't have the talent anymore he let it go far too long I understand taking time to take care of your kids but forsaken your entire career was kind of stupid he's not worth very much anymore he only has a net value today of less than 10 million dollars so that's pretty sad for someone who is a pretty big actor back in the day but it's his own fault
You sound like a 14yr old
It makes you sound so desperate when you bed for subs like that.
Who Cares
🤫well you do obviously. Or why bother to leave a pointless comment ?.....
Pretty sad comment..You clicked on this video, means you cared enough to see what was going on? Was it not tragic enough for you to project on? 😂
IM GUESSING ... NO TALENT?
