Tarantino finishes script for his tenth film, but puts it on hold for his West End play

Quentin Tarantino says he has finished a screenplay for his tenth feature, which he has long described as his final film.

Bottom line — Tarantino’s play is scheduled to close in June 2027; he has not said whether the screenplay will become a film.
