又是一年万圣节前夜。又到了重温吸血鬼类型影视剧的时候了。

有这样一部剧，剧情很狗血，但男女主的颜值惊艳了很多人的青春，它就是美剧《吸血鬼日记》（The Vampire Diaries）。

近日，外媒报道，《吸血鬼日记》的男主，Damon Salvatore的饰演者——45岁的伊恩·萨默海尔德（Ian Joseph Somerhalder）宣布他已正式退出演艺圈，和妻子妮基·瑞德（Nikki Reed）离开了洛杉矶，去农场追求健康的新生活。

伊恩·萨默海尔德，1978年12月8日出生于美国路易斯安那州，2004年出演悬疑电视连续剧《迷失》中Boone Carlyle一角开始为人所认识。
2009年因在电视剧《吸血鬼日记》中扮演吸血鬼兄弟中代表邪恶化身的哥哥Damon Salvatore而广为人知。

他曾被评为2010年青少年选择奖电视剧最受欢迎反派角色，2012年青少年选择奖最性感男演员，连续3年获得青少年选择奖科幻类剧集最佳男演员，第40届人民选择奖最受欢迎科幻类剧集男演员。
近年来伊恩逐渐减产，最新消息是他在采访时承认自己已经退出演艺圈，和妻子和孩子一起离开洛杉矶后忙于务农工作，同时也成立了三家公司。

Ian Somerhalder is opening up about his reasons for stepping away from acting.伊恩·萨默海尔德正式公开离开演艺圈的原因。
After starring in high-profile shows like "Lost" and "The Vampire Diaries" -- shows which celebrate their 20th and 15th anniversaries this year, respectively -- the actor opened up in a new interview with People about why he left show business behind to focus on his passion projects and to raise his family.在主演了《迷失》和《吸血鬼日记》等高知名度剧集之后——这两部剧集今年分别迎来了20周年和15周年纪念日——这位演员在接受《人物》杂志采访时，公开谈论了他为什么离开演艺圈，转而专注于自己喜欢的事情和照顾家庭。

Somerhalder said he recalled telling his management he was walking away from acting "at this sort of peak" where he "could have gone and done anything," but that the things he's pursuing today "mean way more to me."伊恩·萨默海尔德回忆起，他曾告诉经纪人自己要离开演艺圈，当时他正处于事业的“巅峰”，可以“去尝试任何事情”，但如今他所追求的事业“对我来说意义更加重大”。
"I say this in all humility, in all respect, but I would much rather do this than go spend two months in some city, shooting a TV show away from my family or transporting my family back and forth," he said, adding, "I don't need to chase awards and anything that would make me feel better about myself."“老实说，我更愿意做这些事情，而不是花两个月的时间在某个城市拍摄电视剧，远离我的家人，或者带着家人来回奔波。他补充道：“我不需要再争取奖项和任何能让我感觉更好的东西了。”

伊恩·萨默海尔德的选择，得到了妻子妮基·瑞德（Nikki Reed）的支持。妮基就是《暮光之城》中的Rosalie Hale，不知道大家还有没有印象？

The couple, who began dating in 2014 and tied the knot the following year, are parents to daughter Bodhi Soleil, 6, and a son, whose birth they announced in June.这对夫妻于2014年开始交往，次年结婚。他们育有一位6岁的女儿波迪·索莱尔和一个儿子，儿子于今年6月出生。

“When you see the way that nature operates, you find compassion,” the “Twilight” actress, 35, told the outlet.“It’s a beautiful thing to see what’s happening with children, to watch them participate in the growing of their food and the understanding of what food is and where it comes from.”

“当你看到大自然的运作方式，你会找到同情心，”这位35岁的《暮光之城》女演员告诉媒体。“看到孩子们参与种植食物，了解食物是什么以及它的来源，是一件很美妙的事情。”

While he largely tends to keep his personal life private, Somerhalder spoke to E! News in November about his new lifestyle, which he admits takes “a lot of work.”

虽然伊恩·萨默海尔德很注重个人隐私，但他曾在去年11月接受E！News采访时谈到了他的新生活方式，并承认这“需要很多努力”。

 

“It’s unbelievable when you see these amazing creature life forms and how they all live on the farm together is really special,” he told the outlet.“We’re farm people, we produce most of our own food,” he added. “I live in my cowboy boots.”

“当你看到这些神奇的生物，它们如何在农场和谐共处，真的非常特别，”他告诉媒体。“我们是农场人，我们自己生产大部分食物，”他补充道，“我经常穿着牛仔靴。”

 

The “Lost” actor, who quit Hollywood in 2019, described his new life as a farm manager as “our 2.0 version.”

这位曾经出演《迷失》的演员于2019年离开了好莱坞。他将自己现在经营农场的生活称为“我们的2.0版”。

这样的田园生活，你羡慕吗？
