Quentin Tarantino Hatches ‘Star Trek’ Movie Idea; Paramount, JJ Abrams To Assemble Writer’s Room

[berzeli]

via Deadline

Already busy prepping to direct the film he just set up at Sony Pictures, Quentin Tarantino is also planning to boldly go where he has not gone before. Sources said that Tarantino has come up with a great idea for a Star Trek movie at Paramount. After sharing his idea with JJ Abrams (who himself is busy prepping Star Wars Episode IX), I've heard the plan is to assemble a writers room of scribes who'll hear Tarantino's take and begin to put together a movie. If it all works out, Tarantino might direct it, with Abrams producing.

I can't imagine what a Tarantino Star Trek would be.

 

[wenis]

Huh. Alright. I'm down for some Star Trek Tarantino weirdness.

He has said several times before the he wanted to do Star Trek, but as his last movie. Is he going to go out already? Seems a bit early to me.

 

[thesoapster]

Someone think up a horrible slur for Vulcans, quick!

 

[Cochese]

Fuck it, why not at this point.

 

[TemplaerDude]

I don't want anything to do with Abrams vision of Star Trek, thanks.

[Sanjuro]

Morricone Star Trek.

 

[Daitokuji]

The Trek reboot series has been mediocre at best. May as well give a real auteur a shot.

 

[VaporSnake]

Tarantino has talked about his idea for a Star Trek film for a long time. Based on one of the episodes from TNG but spruced up into feature length

It'd be interesting to see a Tarantino take on the Star Trek universe, especially if it's "clean"...

 

[Pwnz]

Eh, we'll see. Looking like Discovery is the best be will get in modern times.

Can't wait for Captain Jules to spit righteous fury about the Prime Directive

 

[Fancy Clown]

[BobLoblaw]

Wut?

 

[BossAttack]

DEAR GOD, YES! YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!

 

[Earvin Infinity]

It really is unimaginable. I can imagine a David Lynch star trek movie before Tarantino.

 

[Xe4]

[Shoeless]

Damn. Spock and McCoy talking about the funny little differences with Hasperat on Bajor versus the Burrito with cheese you get on Deep Space 9...

He's talked before about wanting to direct only ten movies. By his own count (considering Kill Bill one film, disowning My Best Friend's Birthday, and not considering his segment of Four Rooms to be its own film but counting Death Proof) The Hateful Eight was his eighth, so the film after his Manson film would be number ten. 'Course he could always change his mind in the future.

The Star Trek film I never knew I wanted... I'd normally prefer for him to stick to his own material where he can be free from constraints, but I'm really interested in this.
