Tarantino is writing a West End play. Starring Sacha Baron Cohen

The play itself was already announced but Cohen’s involvement is newly announced I believe. I’m a pretty big Tarantino fan and it’s funny to see how firmly he’s backed himself into a corner. He wants to stick to his ten movie rule because he’s spent almost 30 years blabbering about it to anyone who will listen but his continuous success means there’s pressure on it that wasn’t there when he first started saying it. So now we’re getting West End plays while he tries to figure out what his “final statement” will be.

"Quentin called, I said yes before he even got to say his first ‘motherfXer,'" shares Cohen in a statement. "When the best director in the world calls, you don’t ask questions, I am beyond delighted that we will be losing our West End virginity together. I have made him promise not to be gentle.”



Classy.
