Quentin Tarantino Drops The Hateful Eight Movie After Script Leak
Sony Pictures
Never one to shirk the limelight, Quentin Tarantino recently announced that his next movie was to be a Western titled The Hateful Eight. Well, it now appears that that particular project won’t be happening – at least not any time soon, at least – due to the writer/director having a bit of a wobble at the screenplay having leaked online. Tarantino spoke to Deadline about his frustrations.
Open about his anxiety over the leak, Tarantino confessed, “I’m very, very depressed. I finished a script, a first draft, and I didn’t mean to shoot it until next winter, a year from now. I gave it to six people, and apparently it’s gotten out today.” Most recently having directed Django Unchained, Tarantino revealed that his agent, Mike Simpson, broke the news to him after having received several calls from agents looking to suggest their clients for roles in the Western.
