An exciting new update has emerged regarding Quentin Tarantino’s final movie.
Tarantino has long said that he allegedly plans to retire from filmmaking after making ten movies. His final movie was initially going to be a project called The Movie Critic; however, it was revealed in 2024 that the Pulp Fiction director had changed his mind and was abandoning the project.
There’s been little news about Tarantino’s final film since then, though a new update has now emerged.
What is the most recent update on Quentin Tarantino’s final movie?
Jeff Sneider said on a recent episode of The Hot Mic that Tarantino’s “movie is coming back together for an end-of-the-year shoot, or possibly early next year.”
Sneider noted that fans may want to take the news “with a grain of salt because who knows what could happen.” He also said he was unsure whether Tarantino is reassembling The Movie Critic as his final project or if he’s now working on something completely different.
“It could be something else, I don’t know what he’s going to do,” Sneider said. “But I hear that Quentin is, in fact, going to get back behind the camera in the next 12 months.”
In January 2025, Tarantino said, via Variety, that he wasn’t in a hurry to make his last movie.
“I’m in no hurry to actually jump into production,” the filmmaker commented. “I’ve been doing that for 30 years. Next month, my son turns 5, and I have a two-and-a-half-year-old daughter. When I’m in America, I’m writing. When I’m in Israel? I’m an abba, which means father…The idea of jumping on a voyage when they’re too young to understand it is not enticing to me. I kind of want to not do whatever movie I end up doing until my son is at least 6. That way he’ll know what’s going on, he’ll be there, and it will be a memory for the rest of his life.”
He did, however, note that he was currently writing a play. Tarantino said that if the play is a “smash hit,” it “could” be adapted into his final movie, though it “probably” won’t be if it winds up being a “fiasco.”
