The Making Of Once Upon A Time In Hollywood will be the first of ten new Quentin Tarantino books about the making of his films. More here.
He might not be in a rush to make another film, but Quentin Tarantino seems to be very much enjoying his work in books. His latest projects – and there will be lots of projects – cover a series of books he’s intending to write about the making of each of his films.
He’s inked a deal with Insight Editions, that’ll see him working with Jay Glennie to create ten different books across the ten films he’ll have made as a director.
The idea is for these to be coffee table books, although my own personal coffee table is reserved strictly for coffee. That notwithstanding, we can assume that these will be hefty tomes with lots of pictures, and a little too heavy to read on the throne.
The first arrives on 11th November this year, with The Making Of Quentin Tarantino’s Once Upon A Time… In Hollywood kicking the series off. The initial deal that Tarantino has made will cover three book, and as such in 2026, we’ll be getting a large book on Inglourious Basterds. In 2027 meanwhile, it’ll be Django Unchained.
The books will draw on Quentin Tarantino’s archive of material from his films, as well as access to the casts of the respective films.
If you’re expecting a hefty price tag for this, then you’re absolutely going to get one. The Making Of Once Upon A Time In… Hollywood has gone up for pre-order with an asking price of £59.99 in the UK. It’s listed as having 400 pages, but that might not be locked down as of yet.
If you’re inclined to purchase a copy, then you can find the listing for it here.
As the listing notes, ‘The book includes new and exclusive interviews undertaken by Jay Glennie with key cast and crew members, including Oscar winning actors Leonardo DiCaprio and Brad Pitt, Oscar nominee Margot Robbie, and the brilliant supporting cast including Oscar winner Mikey Madison, Margaret Qualley, Oscar nominee Austin Butler, Lena Dunham, Kurt Russell, Dakota Fanning, Emile Hirsch, Damian Lewis, Maya Hawke, and Sydney Sweeney.’
