Garland has planned quitting directing for years. In this article from 2022 he says Civil War will be his last movie as a director for a while but will continue writing

"I don’t know. I’ve got a quite complicated but serious internal dialogue about what I’m going to do next. Years ago, I started out as a novelist and then stopped writing novels and started working in film. And I have been feeling quite strongly that I should stop directing films and I should write for other people with the intention of trying to execute the film they want to make, rather than trying to force through the film I want to make, which is what used to happen in the old days.
It could be in part a product that I ended post-production on Men literally 48 hours before principal photography of Civil War so maybe that was just exhausting. But I wonder whether it’s time to step back. Civil War will definitely be my last film as a director for at least a while. Definitely."
oh seems only 2 days between ending filming of Men to start filming Civil War was definitely a mistake so either way was going to take a logical breather. But I get the feeling he went from logical breather to never directing again at all with everything

How was Men? Still need to watch

Extremely divisive but I loved it. His weirdest movie for sure tho.
i think his love for filmmaking will return later on . he just needs to be away for a bit

I feel like my bias is already gonna be there cuz of so many of the early reviews saying dude ultimately doesn’t say anything. I’m sure it’s gonna be a great movie visually speaking tho
How was Men? Still need to watch
Hated it. I really dislike using the word “pretentious” for films, but that’s all I got from that movie
Dredd is his only bad movie, not Men. Men wasn’t great, but it also wasn’t trash to me.
