Christopher Nolan Confirms Quentin Tarantino Is Not Done With Hollywood After Final Movie ‘The Movie Critic’
The Hollywood universe has been gifted with some great talents from getting the best actors like Will Smith to directors like Christopher Nolan and Quentin Tarantino.
Christopher Nolan is quite popularly known for his top Hollywood blockbuster movies. And, Tarantino is also among the other leading director who is popularly known for his works in blockbuster movies like One Upon A Time in Hollywood and Django Unchained.
The popular Hollywood director, Tarantino has been on the top headlines after he announced his plans to retire after releasing his tenth movie.
After this announcement, it leaves all of us with a question about whether Tarantino’s movies will be just remembered as the best movies from the past or if there is any possibility that Tarantino could take it forward.
Is Quentin Tarantino Leaving Hollywood?
Christopher Nolan has worked on many superhero genres before but the work he loves is to create some stunning complex movies like Tenet and Interstellar and also Oppenheimer which are now among the trending movies and TV shows.
Nolan’s statement about Quentin Tarantino‘s retirement came out during his podcast conversation in ReelBlend, where when it was asked about Tarantino’s plans for retirement, Nolan immediately fired back by saying “Do you believe him?”
Interviewver: “We all know Mr Tarantino is gonna make one more film and then he says he’s going to be finished…”
Christopher Nolan: “Yeah… and you believed him?”

Following his response, the podcast host disagreed after which the creator of Oppenheimer opened up by stating:
The truth is, I understand both points of view. It’s addictive to tell stories in cinema. It’s a lot of hard work, but it’s very fun. It’s something you feel driven to do, and so it’s a little hard to imagine voluntarily stopping. But I also see … Quentin’s point has always been that – and he never, very graciously, he’s never specific about the films he’s talking about or whatever – but he’s looking at some of the work done by filmmakers in later years and feeling that if it can’t live up to the heyday, it would be better if it didn’t exist. And I think that’s a very purest point of view. It’s the point of view of a cinephile who prizes film history.
Nolan also said that he has adored the maker of Django Unchained‘s work and he wants to continue working with him to bring more new movies in the near future and we would want that the retirement doesn’t happen.
Christopher Nolan doesn’t want Tarantino to retire. However, Nolan did understand his perspective towards making a strong bold statement on leaving Hollywood, but he is just quite unsure about if the maker of Inglourious Basterds is going to retire or not.
I’m not sure that I would trust my own sense of the absolute value of a piece of work to know whether or not it should have been brought into existence. I’m a big fan, as is Quentin, of films that maybe don’t fully achieve what they try to, but there’s something in there that’s a performance, or a little structural thing, or a scene, you know, that’s wonderful. And so, yes, I understand. I think (I) wanted to keep a sort of perfect reputation of something, but also kind of don’t want to take anything off the table.
Nolan leaves fans with a small ray of hope that Death Proof‘s creator would continue making more new movies and continue to bring more stunning thrillers coming with sharp dialogues. However, post Nolan’s comment about retirement, Tarantino hasn’t really commented about it yet.
