Quentin Tarantino and Sylvester Stallone are said to be co-directors and writers of a 1930s-set gangster series, according to a new report on TMZ.
The outlet states that the pair is planning to produce a six-episode limited series featuring a full array of gangster elements, including shootouts, boxing, showgirls, brass bands, etc. Tarantino has consistently shown his interest in the 1930s gangster genre.
At one point, it was reported that he was considering directing a “Star Trek” film that was based on an episode from the classic series in which the crew visits a planet with an Earth-like 1920s gangster culture.
Even though there were rumors of Stallone being cast in both “Jackie Brown” and “Death Proof” at one point, it is surprising that Stallone has never worked with Tarantino before.
Although there is no plot for this series yet, if it does happen as expected, it would be Stallone’s first time directing since 2010’s “The Expendables” and his first time directing anything for television.
According to the report, the show will be recorded in black and white with 1930s cameras. There hasn’t been any information about a potential producer, distributor, or any production dates yet.
