Quentin Tarantino plans to retire after his 10th film.
The 51-year-old director revealed his plans to an American Film Market audience at the Casa del Mar hotel last week. Tarantino is currently working on his eighth movie, The Hateful Eight, and said he would like to stop directing while he is still successful.
"I don't believe you should stay onstage until people are begging you to get off," he declared. "I like the idea of leaving them wanting a bit more. I do think directing is a young man's game ... I'm not trying to ridicule anyone who thinks differently, but I want to go out while I'm still hard."
"I like that I will leave a 10-film filmography, and I've got two more to go after this," he related. "If I get to the 10th, do a good job and don't screw it up, well that sounds like a good way to end the old career. If, later on, I come across a good movie, I won't not do it just because I said I wouldn't."
Tarantino made his feature film debut with Reservoir Dogs in 1992, and has released Pulp Fiction, Jackie Brown, Kill Bill: Vol. 1 and Vol. 2, Grindhouse and Death Proof, Inglourious Basterds and Django Unchained since.
The Hateful Eight follows a group of contentious travelers trapped by a blizzard in a remote saloon. Kurt Russell, Samuel L. Jackson, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Tim Roth, Michael Madsen, Bruce Dern, Walton Goggins and Demian Bichir will star, and the movie is scheduled for release in 2015.
