'U.N.C.L.E.' to be last Steven Soderbergh film?

A producer on The Man From U.N.C.L.E. has revealed that the project will in all likelihood be director Steven Soderbergh's final film.

Soderbergh said in March that he was bored of film, stating that he plans to retire from the industry in the near future. According to Man From U.N.C.L.E. producer Davis, the spy remake will be Soderbergh's final film, Collider reports.

"Steven Soderbergh said that it will be his last movie," Davis said. "It will hopefully start shooting sometime early next year."

George Clooney is rumoured to star in the movie as the lead spy Napoleon Solo. While Davis refused to confirm the news, he did address the speculation.

"That would be the best way to do it," Davis said when asked if Clooney was attached to the film.

The Man From U.N.C.L.E. was a 1960s television series about the fictional United Network Command for Law Enforcement (U.N.C.L.E.). It starred Robert Vaughn and David McCallum.

Soderbergh first signed on to direct The Man From U.N.C.L.E. late last year.

The Man From U.N.C.L.E. is currently scheduled for a 2012 release.
