"Spectre" director Sam Mendes has revealed he will not make any more James Bond films after the next instalment, which comes out this October.
Mendes, who was also behind the camera for the record-breaking "Skyfall" in 2012, said he was "pilloried" by his friends to make the follow-up "Spectre", reported BBC.
"I said no to the last one and then ended up doing it, and was pilloried by all my friends. But I do think this is probably it. I don't think I could go down that road again. You do have to put everything else on hold," he said.

"You really do feel it. This is a bigger movie than Skyfall. It's shot in more places... We were in Mexico City and Tangiers and northern Sahara and Rome and the Alps and London. It's been an enormous undertaking," he added.
