Quentin Tarantino, Once Upon a Time in Holywood, Moscow

Back in early July, Quentin Tarantino said that he plans to end his feature film career after completing his tenth movie. While some fans remain unconvinced by the ONCE UPON A TIME IN HOLLYWOOD director's claim, he insists that his time developing feature-length projects has "come to the end of the road."

While only time will tell if Tarantino is indeed through with creating cinematic spectacles meant for the silver screen, we do have something of an update on the matter from the filmmaker himself, who while attending a press conference in Moscow said that his tenth and final film will be "epilogue-y."

"If you think about the idea of all the movies telling one story, and each film is like a train boxcar, connected to each other, this one would sort of be the big show-stopping climax of it all," he said. "And I could imagine that the 10th one would be a little more epilogue-y."

While in Russia, Tarantino arranged for a tour of the Kremlin, a world-famous fortified complex located at the center of Moscow. As a part of the afternoon's activities, Tarantino reportedly engaged in a cheese tasting courtesy of a Moscow region farmer. Also while touring the historic site, the PULP FICTION filmmaker was joined by Vladimir Medinsky, who as it happens, isn't exactly a fan of the type of shenanigans that transpire in the sinful land of Hollywood.

Obviously, news outlets were curious as to why Tarantino had chosen the Kremlin as his venue of choice for a ONCE UPON A TIME IN HOLLYWOOD conference. When asked about whether or not he thinks its wise to be hanging out with the Russian government, Tarantino told the independent TV network Dozhd, "I don't agree with some of the things that I've heard about that are going on when it comes to the government, but when I'm here, I'm here to see the Russian people. I'm here to see my fans."

"Epilogue-y," eh? What do you think this means for Tarantino's final film? Could it be that he's thinking about directing a sequel to the KILL BILL series? Something to wrap up the Whole Bloody Affair? Let us know what you think is going on in that big brain of his in the comments section below.
