With his latest offering riding high in the cinema charts in the form of Django Unchained, Tarantino it seems is lining up yet another story to go alongside Django and Inglorious Basterds. In an unusual move he is considering putting something together using previously unused material.
Tarantino has previously talked about having loads of leftover material and unused footage and
now he is said to be considering a third revisionist history film this time highlighting characters originally intended to feature in stories to run alongside those of Brad Pitt’s Lt. Aldo Raines and his squad.
He had this to say: "My original idea for Inglourious Basterds way back when was that this would be a huge story that included the smaller story that you saw in the film, but also followed a bunch of black troops, and they had been f***ed over by the American military and kind of go apeshit,"
"They basically – the way Lt. Aldo Raines and the Basterds are having an 'Apache resistance' – the black troops go on an Apache warpath and kill a bunch of white soldiers and white officers on a military base and are just making a warpath to Switzerland."
The working title for the project is currently called Killer Crow but is thought not to be set in stone at this stage. Currently the material will make for about half a film, and, if the project gets off the ground it would be set in 1944 following the Allied landings. Bearing in mind how busy the director is these days it seems far off yet.
