Michael Douglas says Jack Nicholson 'has disappeared' from the Hollywood spotlight

Michael Douglas admitted his longtime friend, Jack Nicholson, has essentially "disappeared" from the spotlight.

Douglas, 82, reflected on his storied career and missed opportunities while discussing his new memoir, "One Helluva Ride."

When asked who he never had a chance to work with, Douglas noted that he "would have liked to have acted with Jack," according to The Independent.

"He's not working any more. He's well," Douglas said. "He has disappeared. I know that."

The "Wall Street" actor added, "I still see him, but he is fine. He is up there by his house and walking around in his slippers. It happens. He deserves it. I understand. He is a few years older than me, but I understand."

Nicholson, 89, is rarely seen in public and was last credited on the 2010 film "How Do You Know."

Lorraine wrote about growing up as the daughter of somewhat controversial parents, and noted that her friend's parents were "not so keen on letting their children come over to Jack Nicholson's house."

"For the Hefners, I imagine it was nice to know that my father would never be like the other fathers, lingering a little too long after their children were dropped off, marveling, open-mouthed and fully clothed, at the way the refracted light danced on the roof of the grotto," Lorraine wrote.

"They didnt have to worry about these things, because my father was on the list. Which meant that he could show up at the Mansion, without an invitation, at any time."

Crystal also admitted her late husband was obsessed with Hollywood lore and stardom.

"One thing that mattered most to Hef was fame," she shared.

"Any celebrity was treated extremely well whenever they visited. He would have Bill Maher for chats, hang with Berry Gordy of Motown and then youd see ple
