Brad Pitt and Quentin Tarantino are back at it … the duo will be reuniting for the director’s tenth and final film, “The Movie Critic.”
Pitt walked away with the Best Supporting Actor Oscar for his last collab with Q in 2019’s “Once Upon A Time In Hollywood” … and their first collab in 2009’s “Inglorious Basterds” also generated tons of praise — so signing up for another round of acclaim was clearly a no-brainer for the actor, ’cause he’s coming back for thirds with QT.
Deadline reports the new movie’s eyeing up a 2025 release & producer Stacey Sher, who worked on QT’s 1994 hit “Pulp Fiction,” has hopped on board as producer … so it’ll clearly be in good hands. Sony’s also supposedly picked up the film’s distribution rights.
Quentin has not delved too deep into the movie’s premise — but we know it’s based on the life of a movie critic in the late 1970s, as per the title.
Filming will be taking place in his L.A … Quentin said in a previous statement he started directing movies in Cali … so it was only fitting he’d shoot his final motion picture in his hometown and cinema capital of the world.
QT’s long made it clear he would only direct 10 movies … telling Playboy back in 2022 that he didn’t believe directors got better with age — in fact, he noticed they got out of touch with what audiences wanted, making their last 4 films their worst.
Also, after forging a career as one of the most acclaimed directors in Hollywood, he may likely be taking a step back to focus on family cause he’s got two little ones at home.
