Tarantino scraps his tenth film – a look at five other times Hollywood giants cancelled major projects

Reading Time: < 1 minute

Quentin Tarantino, the renowned filmmaker known for his unique storytelling and cinematic style, has reportedly made a surprising decision to scrap his highly anticipated tenth and final feature film, The Movie Critic, deep into pre-production. This move has left fans and industry insiders shocked and curious about the reasons behind this sudden change of plans.

Tarantino’s decision adds to a long list of cancelled or unproduced projects in Hollywood, where countless films fail to see the light of day due to various reasons such as financial constraints, creative differences, or simply the unpredictable nature of the industry.

Among the notable “shadow” films that never made it to the big screen is Diablo Cody’s Barbie, a project that struggled to find the right balance between modern feminism and the iconic character. Similarly, Steven Spielberg’s Night Skies, a darker take on alien encounters, was eventually transformed into the beloved classic E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial.

Other intriguing projects that never materialized include Sofia Coppola’s vision of The Little Mermaid, which faced challenges with budget constraints and technical difficulties, and Guillermo Del Toro’s ambitious adaptation of H.P. Lovecraft’s At the Mountains of Madness, which was ultimately shelved due to studio concerns.

Even completed films like Batgirl, directed by Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah, faced an uncertain fate as changes in studio ownership led to its cancellation during post-production, leaving many in the industry disappointed.

The world of cinema is full of untold stories and missed opportunities, reminding us that even the most promising projects can sometimes fall by the wayside. Quentin Tarantino’s decision to abandon The Movie Critic serves as a poignant reminder of the unpredictable nature of the film industry and the challenges that filmmakers face in bringing their visions to life.
