A dedicated series of three books, each delving into Quentin Tarantino`s iconic films, is planned for release by 2027. The inaugural volume, titled `The Making of Quentin Tarantino`s Once Upon a Time in Hollywood,` is a substantial nearly 500-page hardcover edition and features a personal introduction penned by Tarantino himself. This highly anticipated book is currently available for pre-order and is scheduled for release on October 28.
Authored by Jay Glennie, renowned for his previous work `One Shot: The Making of The Deer Hunter,` this new book offers an unparalleled, in-depth exploration of the production journey behind `Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.` Glennie was granted extraordinary access to exclusive stories, archival materials, and personal anecdotes directly from Tarantino and the film`s cast, promising what is poised to be the most comprehensive account of the movie`s creation. Beyond Tarantino`s insightful introduction, the book is richly illustrated with never-before-seen behind-the-scenes photographs, crucial production memos, original concept art, and early development sketches.
The volume also features new interviews conducted by Glennie with key cast and crew members, including prominent stars like Leonardo DiCaprio, Brad Pitt, Margot Robbie, Margaret Qualley, and Mikey Madison. Published by Insight Editions, the book is expected to boast exceptional production quality, ensuring it will be a distinguished and prized addition to any film enthusiast`s collection or coffee table.
It is worth noting that `Once Upon a Time in Hollywood` exists not only as a critically acclaimed film but also as a companion novel. Tarantino himself adapted the story into a book for HarperCollins, offering readers another immersive dimension to his celebrated narrative and characters.
