Quentin Tarantino is quitting filmmaking after his 10th movie. In a new interview, he declared that he will stop making movies after helming his next project, which will serve as his tenth film.
“I`ve been doing it for a long time; I`ve been doing it for 30 years. And it`s time to wrap up the show,” the 59-year-old told CNN`s Chris Wallace, reports aceshowbiz.com.
“I`m an entertainer. I want to leave you wanting more.”
Tarantino previously teased his retirement in June 2021. When appearing on “Real Time With Bill Maher”, he confirmed he`s bowing out to focus on writing.
“I know film history and from here on in, filmmakers do not get better,” he said.

“Don Siegel – if he had quit his career in 1979, when he did Escape from Alcatraz, what a final film! What a mic drop,” the Tennessee native added. “But he dribbles away with two more other ones.”
Tarantino, who`s also behind movies like “Django Unchained” and “Pulp Fiction”, recently reflected on his projects throughout his entire career in a recent SiriusXM interview with Howard Stern.
During the chat, he declared that `Once Upon a Time in Hollywood` is his “best movie” to date.
“For years people used to ask me stuff like that,” the Oscar winner said. “And I would say something like, `Oh, they`re all my children.` Then I would change it to, `Well, it kind of depends on when you ask me. If you ask me one year, or one moment, I could say, oh, `Kill Bill`.”
“Another one I could say something else.` (But) I really do think `Once Upon a Time in Hollywood` is my best movie.”
