Quentin Tarantino Rumored To Be Directing Next Star Trek Film

by Imran Khan on Dec 04, 2017 at 09:01 PM

Deadline reports a rumor that Quentin Tarantino, director of movies like Reservoir Dogs, Kill Bill, and Pulp Fiction, is pitching his idea for the next Star Trek movie set in JJ Abrams' reboot film line.

Tarantino, who has been eyeing retirement in the future, has apparently shared his idea for a Star Trek film with producer JJ Abrams. Abrams' being brought in to direct Star Wars: Episode IX after Jurassic World's Colin Trevorrow parted ways with Disney and Lucasfilm on the project, causing delays in the progress of the Star Trek series unless Tarantino picks it up.

It is just a rumor for now, and Tarantino's other projects might make taking over a Star Trek unfeasible, but it could be interesting to see what the once-niche auteur director does with Star Trek.
