So, I ended up doing a bunch of movies like that and then I got to where I stopped having fun and making movies and so I had to take time off,&rdquo; said Murphy, on &ldquo;The Drew Barrymore Show&rdquo;.<\/p>\n<p>He said in 2011 he stopped working for a couple of years.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;In 2011, I stopped working for, like, eight years. I just stopped making movies and that&rsquo;s when I had some really quiet time and got re-centered.
