Celebrated filmmaker Richard Curtis is all set to give up direction after the release of his final film next month.
The 56-year-old has written and produced some of Britain's best-known romantic comedies, including "Four Weddings and a Funeral", "Notting Hill", "Bridget Jones's Diary", reported Contactmusic.
His latest film, "About Time", starring Rachel McAdams, is due to hit cinemas in August, but Curtis has revealed it will probably be the last film he ever directs.
"I waited a while in order to write (About Time). This probably will be the last film I will direct," Curtis said.
When asked for the reason behind his decision to retire from directing, he said, "I don't know. Just a feeling... It feels like a summing-up to me. We'll see how things turn out.
