Quentin Tarantino Has Pitched Paramount An Idea For A New STAR TREK Movie And May Wind Up Directing!
Could we actually see Quentin Tarantino take the helm of a Star Trek movie? The director has reportedly pitched an idea to Paramount Pictures and J.J. Abrams, who are currently assembling a writers room.
Well, I think it's safe to say nobody saw this coming.
According to Deadline, Quentin Tarantino (Pulp Fiction, The Hateful Eight, Kill Bill) has come up with a great idea for a new Star Trek movie at Paramount, and has shared
the details with J.J. Abrams. Apparently, the plan is to assemble a writers room who will work on Tarantino's pitch before getting to work on the project.
If it all works out, Tarantino might direct, with Abrams producing.
Tarantino has spoken about his love for the Star Trek franchise in the past, but nobody really believed that he'd ever actually take a journey to the final frontier. It doesn't sound like anything is set in stone here, but it's certainly going to be very interesting to see how the situation develops.
