- There has been ongoing coverage about Tarantino’s plans for a final decade-spanning period of work, with reports that he might pause directing feature films after his 10th project, though specifics have varied by source and date. Some articles note continuing talk of a possible new project or collaborations, even as he weighs retirement from feature filmmaking.[2]
