Tarantino Already Has Half-Written Prequel for ‘Basterds’

In a recent interview with the New York Times, director Quentin Tarantino sat down to talk everything ‘Inglourious Basterds.’ Â  Every topic was broached from Tarantino’s inspirations for the film to the unusual spelling of the film’s title. Â  However, the most interesting news came at the very end of the interview, when Tarantino had this interesting piece of information to dish out:

“I have a half-written prequel ready to go if this movie’s a smash,† he said.

Evidently, the prequel would center around the African-American soldiers stuck behind enemy lines. Â  This is very interesting when you consider Spike Lee, a director who has had less-than-friendly run-ins with Tarantino in the past, just had ‘Miracle at St. Anna’ release last year. Â  I’m sure whatever Tarantino has up his sleeve for the prequel to ‘Basterds,’ it will elicit a far better response than Lee’s film.

‘Inglourious Basterds’ is set for release on August 21st.
