According to Quentin Tarantino's agency WME, the director has turned in the final draft of his spaghetti western movie called DJANGO UNCHAINED to The Weinstein Company. The movie will be produced by Stacey Sher (PULP FICTION) and Pilar Savone (INGLOURIOUS BASTERDS).
In addition to that, Thompson on Hollywood has confirmed that INGLOURIOUS BASTERDS star Christoph Waltz will reunite with Tarantino for the movie.
And there's more! A commenter at Hollywood Elsewhere claims to have read the script and comments about the detail:
"The title character Django is a freed slave, who under the tutelage of a German bounty hunter (Christoph Waltz) becomes a badass bounty hunter himself and after assisting Waltz on taking down some bad guys for profit, is in turn assisted by Waltz in tracking down his slave wife and liberating her from an evil plantation owner. And that doesn't even half begin to cover it! This film deals with racism as I've rarely seen it handled in a Hollywood film. While it's 100 percent pure popcorn and revenge flick, it is pure genius in the way it takes on the evil slave owning south. Think of what he did with the Nazis in Inglourious and you'll get a sense of what he's doing with slave owners and slave overseers in this one. It's violent and funny and full of great Tarantino monologues and shoot outs (and slave rapes and slave tortures) and the center piece of the script is this fantastic relationship between Django and his Obi-Wan Waltz and it all just f*cking works in the way only Tarantino makes it work."
DJANGO UNCHAINED is expected to start production this year and no official release date is confirmed at the moment.
