Nine feature films, a few scripts adapted from Other Hands (real romanceAnd the Killers are born), piece in four rooms And a scene from the movie Sin Cityand two episodes of the TV series (emergency room and others CSI), which is ultimately a pretty small list given the popularity of this director, considered one of the most talented of his generation. In the graveyard of failed projects adaptation Django / Fox join Kill Bill Vol. 3And the Kill Bill Vol. 4my son Star Trek or Double in Vega.

Hide your hate. behind this.

In development for three years, this strange idea for a feature film stems from a series of unexpected events. It all starts with the adaptation in the full-text comics of Unlock DjangoPosted by vertigo/DC Comics Parallel to the theatrical release of this film, the seventh work of Quentin Tarantino for cinema. In the introduction, the director, who is a big fan of comics (especially Western versions of the repertoire), explained that he was frustrated at having to summarize the scenario of this myriad adventure to fit into the format of no more than three hours of duration. Known for his loose writing style, Tarantino He often used to throw some ideas in the trash due to lack of space (as in the case of Once upon a time in Hollywoodas he had to convert these editing snippets into a novel this time edited without images, in a new format).

entrusted Reginald HudlinAnd the Jason Latour and others RM Guerraa comic book adaptation Unlock Django So it included the entire script. This Detective Chain Prank, Tarantino He decided to allow himself another whim: Crossing between character visitwhose copyright belongs to Dynamite Entertainmentand his western hero, django. Relying on a sufficient amount of time to organize the meeting of these two characters, the director wrote a new script focusing on Don Diego Older, always happy to play the swordsman to defend the weak and the innocent, and django I am happy to help this new gray-haired mentor. Matt Wagner He will take care of modifying this script to make it compatible with sequential writing, accompanied by the artist Steve Bowles in graphics.

In the end, Tarantino, a filmmaker more than a comic book author, will want to turn the fruits of this work into a feature film. This would have been the tenth – and final – of his filmography, if we believe the words of the director who did not see himself continuing to work past these uniquely symbolic commandments. Unfortunately for the curious, it is still necessary to wait: according to the editorial staff of diverseThe project Django / Fox It was nipped in the bud, an obvious victim of its ambition in terms of news budget for post-pandemic releases. Jerrod Carmichaelwho was appointed to co-write the script, admits his disappointment.

“Quentin is crazy, I adore him, and I’m so happy for the time we spent together. We watched the exploits in New Beverly, he read me scenes he never had before.” An opportunity to use in his films, the things he used to write in his kitchen after he made us lemonade with fresh lemons. It was a special moment for me. And I have to say, the script was really cool, and I would love for Sony to find a way to make this movie, but I realize that’s impossible. However, I think we wrote a script worth $500 million.”

Other actor news Antonio Banderasleading to visit (Alexandre MoretaNot Don Diego de la Vega) in both films fox mask and others the legend of zorro From Martin Campbellhas approached before Tarantino Two years ago, during the Oscars. Banderas He was present, nominated in the Best Actor category for Pain and gloryWhile the director was selected in several categories for Once upon a time…in Hollywood. The two men were cutting off a piece of fat, and Banderas He would be very excited about the idea of ​​finding the black mask.

“We met each other at one of those parties. He just came up to me and I said ‘With you?'” Of course, man! Because Quentin has this talent for making these kinds of movies and giving them a special quality, even if it’s this kind of B-grade movie from the ’60s or ’60s, he can take advantage of it and make something out of it. Really interesting.”

We’ve never worked together, but it would be cool, because he is, and because Jamie Foxx, and because I can play Zoro again when he’s a little older. It’s going to be cool and it’s going to be crazy and wonderful.”
