7 More Photos from Quentin Tarantino's THE HATEFUL EIGHT
Yesterday we got our first look at Quentin Tarantion's upcoming western The Hateful Eight. It showed us the characters being played by Samuel L. Jackson, Jennifer Jason Leigh, and Kurt Russell. Today we have seven more photos from the film for you to checkout that gives us a look at some additional characters. Some of those characters include Michael Madsen as Joe Gage, Bruce Dern as General Sanford Smithers, and Tim Roth as Oswaldo Mobray.
In an interview with EW, Leigh briefly describes her character's relationship with Russell's outlaw character John “The Hangman” Ruth saying, they “are essentially the most dysfunctional couple since Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?”
Tarantino also opens up about Hollywood, and his place as a director in the entertainment industry:
“Hollywood has changed a whole lot, and if I had to change with it, I wouldn’t even make it to 60. I signed up for one film industry and I’m not signing up for the other one. That’s not why I got into this. I want there to be a connection to the young artist’s spirit that was there in Reservoir Dogs. I don’t want to be one of those old-man directors; I want there to be some form of aesthetic connection, a vitality, from my first film to whatever is my last film.”
As long as Tarantino is able to keep great and entertaining movies I'll be happy, and from the sound of it, he's not done making movies yet. Here's the synopsis for The Hateful Eight.
In THE HATEFUL EIGHT, set six or eight or twelve years after the Civil War, a stagecoach hurtles through the wintry Wyoming landscape. The passengers, bounty hunter John Ruth (Russell) and his fugitive Daisy Domergue (Leigh), race towards the town of Red Rock where Ruth, known in these parts as “The Hangman,” will bring Domergue to justice. Along the road, they encounter two strangers: Major Marquis Warren (Jackson), a black former union soldier turned infamous bounty hunter, and Chris Mannix (Goggins), a southern renegade who claims to be the town’s new Sheriff. Losing their lead on the blizzard, Ruth, Domergue, Warren and Mannix seek refuge at Minnie’s Haberdashery, a stagecoach stopover on a mountain pass. When they arrive at Minnie’s, they are greeted not by the proprietor but by four unfamiliar faces. Bob (Bichir), who’s taking care of Minnie’s while she’s visiting her mother, is holed up with Oswaldo Mobray (Roth), the hangman of Red Rock, cow-puncher Joe Gage (Madsen), and Confederate General Sanford Smithers (Dern). As the storm overtakes the mountainside stopover, our eight travelers come to learn they may not make it to Red Rock after all…
The movie will be released later this year.
