Of course, for now, he’s just throwing things out there. But as the movie prepares to launch at Cannes, he’s been chatting it up.

And it’s not only a sequel (though he has ideas for that) bubbling away: QT mentions that he has one of those, too.

“I have a half-written prequel ready to go if this movie’s a smash,” he tells the newspaper. It’s a hefty “if”, but then QT’s not known for his shy style when it comes teasing fans with spin-offs or sequels…
