Recognizing that its often best to get out early, Sacha Baron Cohen has decided to put two of his famous characters to rest.  Both Ali G and Borat Sagdiyev - personas created almost 10 years ago - will now only be remembered in their prime.

Thanks to the exposure on HBO’s Da Ali G Show and last year’s Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan, the actor/comedian understands that he can no longer keep up the element of surprise.  Fortunately for fans, this will allow Sacha, 36, to now focus his attention on new roles.  In addition to his flashy cameo in the currently released Sweeney Todd,  Cohen will later be seen in Bruno - a film revolving around the Austrian fashion reporter often featured on his former cable show.
