Details have emerged about Quentin Tarantino’s shelved tenth and final film, ‘The Movie Critic.’ Sony Pictures was reportedly on board to distribute the film, but Tarantino abandoned the project in favor of other ideas. The film had undergone multiple rewrites as Tarantino explored various concepts. One idea involved a meta-narrative, weaving in characters and stars from Tarantino’s past movies, possibly even including Brad Pitt as Cliff Booth from ‘Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.’ Another concept centered around a young aspiring filmmaker interacting with characters at a movie theater, potentially representing Tarantino’s own experiences. Casting rumors included Tom Cruise and Olivia Wilde, but THR reports that Cruise had not met with Tarantino for a role. The main character was reportedly based on a real-life writer whose reviews were a unique blend of early Howard Stern and Travis Bickle from ‘Taxi Driver.’ Tarantino’s decision to pivot away from ‘The Movie Critic’ highlights his pursuit of fresh and exciting creative endeavors, leaving the film’s potential storylines and themes unrealized.
