It was supposed to be his last film but the project has been scrapped.
Quentin Tarantino wanted to create a metaverse for his 10th film featuring actors and characters from his catalogue, including a 16-year-old version of himself.
According to a report from The Hollywood Reporter, this Tarantino-verse would have been set within a fictional movie theatre. The young Tarantino would have acted as the metaverse’s usher, interacting with the filmmaker’s characters and the fictional actors who played them.
The metaverse would have functioned as a fiction-within-a-fiction, complete with the entire concept appearing in “The Movie Critic” as a film-within-a-film set inside a movie theater. Unfortunately, Tarantino has gone on the record stating that The Movie Critic isn’t happening.
