Veteran actor John Malkovich says he does not have the patience to direct again as he believes being at the helm of a film is a "nightmare".
The 64-year-old actor made his one-and-only directorial in 2002 "The Dancer Upstairs" starring Javier Bardem and has no desire of becoming a full-time helmer.
"It's such a nightmare to get a film up and get it going. I don't have the patience really. Not for the directing work; I like that, that's very enjoyable and it's a delight.
"I'm not saying it's easy, or I do it well, or don't do it well. That's something I like very much. (It's) just too much aggro," Malkovich told The I Paper.
