Quentin Tarantino's Final Movie Announced - Details Revealed!
Quentin Tarantino is releasing his final film!
The iconic Pulp Fiction director, who has long promised that his next film will be his last, is set to begin work on his final feature, titled The Movie Critic, via THR. (At least, that’s the name of the script that he wrote.)
He is preparing to direct the movie this fall, according to sources.

Details are being kept secret for now, but THR sources describe the story as “being set in late 1970s Los Angeles with a female lead at its center.”
It may focus on Pauline Kael, one of the most influential movie critics of all time, who passed away in 2001. She briefly worked as a consultant for Paramount in the ’70s, at the insistence of Warren Beatty. Quentin is known to have “a deep respect for Kael, making the odds of her being the subject of the film more likely,” THR notes.
It is not yet tied to a studio, but could go out to studios or buyers as early as this week, according to their sources. Sony distributed Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, his highly successful, star-studded 2019 project.
Quentin has long talked about having 10 films in his career, or else he’d retire by the time he was 60. He has made nine (if you count the two Kill Bill movies as one) and turns 60 later in March.
“I want to stop at a certain point. Directors don’t get better as they get older. Usually the worst films in their filmography are those last four at the end. I am all about my filmography, and one bad film f—s up three good ones. I don’t want that bad, out-of-touch comedy in my filmography, the movie that makes people think, ‘Oh man, he still thinks it’s 20 years ago.’ When directors get out-of-date, it’s not pretty,” he told Playboy.
An actor just opened up about the unique reason Quentin Tarantino does multiple takes in the making of his movies.
