Film: Django Unchained.

Quentin Tarantino seems to be obsessed with his last movie, Django Unchained, because he is planning to develop it into a TV series. That's right!



The Guardian reports that Tarantino is hoping to get his project approved, and if that happens, we'll enjoy four episodes of Django's adventures as a bounty hunter, including a lot of previously unseen footage. Cool!

Quentin Tarantino hopes to release an extended version of his blood-splattered western Django Unchained as a four-part TV series.

The director, on buoyant form in his press conference at the Cannes film festival, said he has 90 minutes of unused footage from the film, which he plans to edit into a mini-series of four one-hour chapters. Django Unchained, which won Tarantino the best original screenplay Oscar last year, stars Jamie Foxx as an antebellum slave who goes on a bloody revenge quest in pursuit of the slave owner who's bought his wife.

"It wouldn't be an endurance test," said Tarantino of the re-edit's mammoth run time. "It would be a mini-series and people love those. You show people a four-hour movie and they roll their eyes. Show people a four-part mini-series and they'll sit and watch it all in one sitting".
