Quentin Tarantino's Star Trek will be R-rated | The Independent
This strange news is only getting stranger.
Entirely expected of him, of course, but Deadline is now reporting that Quentin Tarantino has required that the Star Trek film he pitched to J.J. Abrams and Paramount be R-rated.
The director has already met for several hours in a writers room with The Revenant's Mark L. Smith, Godzilla vs. Kong's Lindsey Beer, Iron Man 3's Drew Pearce, and The Simpsons' Megan Amram to kick around ideas and determine who gets the job. Smith is, however, reportedly the frontrunner.
