Once Upon a Time in Hollywood star Brad Pitt has confirmed that director Quinten Tarantino is talking about creating a mini-series based on the movie.
Tarantino’s latest feature is currently being shown in cinemas. This hasn’t prevented Tarantino from thinking about what he wants to do next with the feature. It was recently shared that the director has been considering re-purposing the film as a mini-series. Now, Brad Pitt has confirmed that these talks have indeed been happening.
“Yeah he’s talked about it,” Pitt said when asked about the concept. “It’s a pretty arousing idea.”
“I’m curious to see if movies last, if movies stick around,” Pitt told the New York Times. “What I notice about the younger generation is that they’re used to receiving a lot of information at a much faster pace, and they’re more inclined to watch a short series of episodes where you can stay in it as long as you want or jump out whenever you get bored.”
Pitt also brought up the success of Hateful Eight, which was released as a mini-series on Netflix. The series included unseen footage from the film and was divided into four parts.
“It’s almost the best of both worlds,” he said. “You have the cinema experience that exists, but you can actually put more content in a series format.”
