Fan Casting Quentin Tarantino’s Django/Zorro

Collider reported earlier this year Tarantino is developing an adaptation of his graphic novel series “Django/Zorro” with comedian and writer Jerrod Carmichael. The seven-issue crossover series, co-written by Tarantino and Matt Wagner, served as a sequel to “Django Unchained” and was published between 2014 and 2015. “Django/Zorro” picks up several years after the film with the title character still working as a bounty hunter. Django has a bounty on his own head in the east because of the murder spree on the Candyland plantation and now operates in the west. It’s here where he meets Don Diego de la Vega, the famed Zorro, and agrees to become his bodyguard on a mission to free the local indigenous population from slavery. Collider reported that Tarantino was not set to direct the “Django/Zorro” film adaptation, but will the director want to hand over his beloved character to someone else’s directorial vision? Only time will tell.
