For the past couple of years, Quentin Tarantino has been suggesting that he’ll call time on his career as a filmmaker after reaching ten movies, and with his eighth film The Hateful Eight now just under a fortnight away from release, the director has reiterated that stance during an interview with THR, as well as discussing his post-retirement plans.

“I’m probably only going to make 10 movies, so I’m already planning on what I’m going to do after that,” said Tarantino. “That’s why I’m counting them. I have two more left. I want to stop at a certain point. What I want to do basically is I want to write novels and I want to write theatre and I want to direct theatre. I actually want to do a theatrical adaptation of Hateful Eight because I actually like the idea of other actors having a chance to play my characters and see what happens from that. [Reservoir Dogs] could be put onstage and has been put onstage many times.”
The Hateful Eight opens in the States on Christmas Day and in the UK on January 8th.
