Los Angeles - Quentin Tarantino has hinted
Inglourious Basterds and
Django Unchained are the first two parts of a trilogy.
The 49-year-old director says there "might well" be another film to follow on from the 2009 war movie - which starred Brad Pitt - and the forthcoming western movie because he regards them as a "companion piece quality", despite their obvious differences.
He told Total Film magazine: "I don't know,
Inglourious Basterds and
Django Unchained bespeak a trilogy.
As different as they are, there is a companion piece quality. There might very well be a third one. I just don't know what it is yet."
Cameo roles
Quentin directed and had uncredited cameo roles in
Inglourious Basterds and is due to do the same when
Django Unchained - which stars Jamie Foxx, Samuel L Jackson and Leonardo DiCaprio - is released on 23 January 2013.
The director - who also starred in
Death Proof and
Reservoir Dogs - was so keen to make an appearance in
Django Unchained he even took some of the lines from one of his cast, Rex Linn, because he liked the look of a particular scene so much.
Rex said: "Quentin told me that he liked the scene so much he wanted to be in it, too, and that he would also be taking some of my lines.
"So, you'll know the scenes when you see them. We'll be on the screen with Don Johnson and Jonah Hill. The scenes may not be long, but you will remember them."
