I saw a recent interview with Jason Biggs who spoke very candidly about the career missteps he made. He thought after American Pie that he was now a star and a leading man and any other dirty comedy or ensemble piece was beneath him, then by the time he had failed enough times to accept the dirty comedy, he couldn't book those roles anymore either. Then he was offered television but thought that television has a stigma his movie career wouldn't be able to recover from, and that line of thinking lost him the starring role in How I Met Your Mother, a show that went on for a decade and made the cast millions. Then he tried for several TV shows and the best he could get was a side role on Orange is the New Black.
So yeah he's allowed to have his preferences. Looking a gift horse in the mouth has its consequences, though. If he's living comfortably and is happy never to be in the spotlight again then more power to him, but something tells me he will likely change his tune down the road.
