Is Tender Loving Care Mike Leigh's final film?

Yes, based on current reporting Tender Loving Care is expected to be Mike Leigh's final feature. The 83-year-old director has said his declining physical health makes it unlikely he'll direct again, calling the situation "somewhat handicapped" despite still having the ideas and energy for more work [4]. Multiple outlets covering its Telluride premiere describe it in these terms, framing it as a fitting, quietly powerful farewell to his five-decade career [1, 2, 3, 5].
