Sam Mendes has confirmed that he will not direct the next installment in the James Bond movie franchise. The director revealed the news at the Hay Festival of Literature in Wales, the Associated Press reports. "It was an incredible adventure, I loved every second of it," Mendes said. "But I think it's time for somebody else." The helmer had worked on the spy franchise for five years now, stating that he hoped the next Bond director would come from an "unexpected direction," just as he had.
