INBETWEENERS star Simon Bird has broken his silence on plans for a third movie.
It comes after his co-star Joe Thomas said all the main cast would be keen to get back together a decade on from the last movie.
But now Simon, 40, who played Will Mackenzie on the teen comedy, has confirmed that there are no plans for a reunion any time soon.
He also said that he was "pouring cold water" on fan speculation that another film was in the pipeline.
"I'm afraid to be the one pouring cold water on this but it's not happening," he told the Mail.
"I can tell you emphatically that there are no prospects of a reunion."

However, the star did not rule it out and said he along with the cast would be keen for a reunion, but it was up to the writers.
Simon added: "We'd be happy to but it's not up to us, it's up to the writers, Iain and Damon, and I know they're both very busy these days.
"It's not more likely to happen now than it was ten years ago I'm afraid."
The star also admitted that he people shout famous Inbetweeners quotes at him in the street - but said he can "can't remember the show" and hasn't watched it back since it was made in 2008.

He admitted he was surprised that people still love the show - adding that there is still an "appetite" for it.
Simon added that he is still close pals with his co-stars, including Blake Harrison, James Buckley and Joe and they have a WhatsApp group where they regularly plan to meet up.
It comes after The Sun revealed earlier this year that talks on a revival are already underway.
Joe, who played Simon Cooper on the show, indicated another film is likelier than a new TV series, and would see the lads far removed from school — where the characters were when the Channel 4 sitcom began in 2008.
Asked whether conversions for a comeback have started, Joe said: “Yes, it’s happened in various forms. All of us feel it would be nice to do.”
He revealed he was still good pals with the cast, including James Buckley (gross Jay), Simon Bird (posh Will) and Blake Harrison (dozy Neil).
He teased “some of the ideas out there” for a revival included a stag do in Vegas.
The four lads would also meet for five-a-side football rather than in the school common room.
But Joe admits: “Everybody’s anxiety would be, ‘Will it be as good?’. That is what we would be going in with.”
The comedy — which also starred Emily Atack as Charlotte — spanned three series between 2008 and 2010, and gained a devoted following.
But it was the two films in 2011 and 2014 that gave The Inbetweeners widespread popularity.
The Inbetweeners 2, which saw the infantile foursome travel to Australia, broke the first movie’s box office record by taking £2.75million on its opening day.
Simon Bird has previously said he still gets “briefcase w***er” shouted at him in the street, in honour of Will’s nickname.
However, Joe admits the four main stars have finally embraced its success after appearing in a string of other projects.
He told the Always Be Comedy podcast: “We’re all still around, we’re all still in each other’s lives.
“We all still like each other. And if it was something that came up, I think we would want to do it.

“I feel like we all still really like each other.
“We’ve all been able to go away and get various monkeys off our backs, in terms of things that we felt we needed to do other than The Inbetweeners to prove something to ourselves.”
