The Oscar-winning filmmaker insists he has no interest in directing another high-octane blockbuster anytime soon, reports contactmusic.com.

His latest movie Lincoln, about former US president Abraham Lincoln, has no big action sequences or special effects. The director revealed on TV show 60 Minutes that that's the reason why he was attracted to the project.

"I knew I could do the action in my sleep at this point in my career. In my life, the action doesn't hold any... it doesn't attract me anymore," said Speilberg.
