Michael Keaton has opened up about being ready to redeem himself in the movie 'Birdman' after having a low profile in Hollywood for last 20 years.

The 63-year-old, made a conscious decision to get back in the acting game, said that he has done a lot of things, besides wearing a big, rubber suit, ABC News reported.

The 'Batman' star added that he has got to start focusing more on not being so lazy and going after the things because he always turned a ton of things down, but did not turn really great things down necessarily.

Keaton continued that one waits for that great script to come along or hopes it's attached with a great director and that's what happened with him.

The movie is the story of a down-on-his-luck actor Riggan Thompson, played by Keaton.
