Movie icon Robert De Niro is considering hanging up his director's hat once he's revisited his current movie The Good Shepherd.

Movie icon Robert De Niro is considering hanging up his director's hat once he's revisited his current movie The Good Shepherd.

The Raging Bull star insists he's almost done as a moviemaker after taking charge of just three films - but he's keen to make a sequel to his latest project before retiring his director's chair.

He reveals: "I'm not gonna direct many more movies. I directed three and I think that's it for me.

"But I'd like to do a second part of this story from 1961 to the fall of the Berlin Wall. I would love to revisit the characters and see how they wind up. That's really something that would be worth doing."
