Tarantino on Inglorious Bastards: 2 Films, "Epic" Slow Motion Scene

June 22nd, 2008 in Action, Directors -

11864147101752942 Moving on from the Grindhouse project, Quentin Tarantino is reported to be working on a remake of WW2 movie Inglorious Bastards. This was revealed through an interview the filmmaker did with the film’s director Enzo Castellari for the original film’s upcoming DVD release.

The interview reveals that Tarantino has finished the script just “last month” and that the film will be split into two just like Kill Bill. He also notes that the film will keep much of the original’s setup and that he has “decided to write the characters with no specific actor in mind.” Tarantino is also said to be considering “an epic slow motion scene,” though I don’t see how well that would work out.

The original film had a group of hardened criminals escape custody during WW2 and decides to make their way to Switzerland, fighting off both the Allies and Nazis to get there.

    Tarantino is pretty hit-or-miss. I don’t think he’s really produced anything “great” since Pulp Fiction, but I’m interested to see the outcome of this anyway.
