'The Hateful Eight, which will star Bruce Dern, Kurt Russell and Samuel L. Jackson, and begin filming next year, was almost cancelled before production ever got started due to the flick's full script leaking online this past January.
Tarantino decided to halt the film project, and initially it was reported that the famed filmmaker was suing a blog site, associated with Gawker Media, for publishing an article called, 'Here Is the Leaked Quentin Tarantino 'Hateful Eight' Script.' He also vowed to only publish the story as a novel.

At the time of the leak, the 51 year-old also stated, "I'm very, very depressed. I finished a script, a first draft, and I didn't mean to shoot it until next winter, a year from now."

However, during in a Q&A session at Comic-Con in San Diego last month, Tarantino confirmed that 'The Hateful Eight' would be making it to the big-screen, he stated, "Yeah, we're going to be doing 'The Hateful Eight,' we weren't sure about it, but I just decided just now."
The forthcoming western style movie is set in a post-Civil war Wyoming, and follows a group of dubious characters, including two competing bounty hunters, who are forced to seek shelter from a harsh blizzard. But these individuals soon find themselves wrapped up in a tale of mistrust and betrayal.
