This past June a brand new comic was revealed from Dynamite/Vertigo imprint that showcased
Django Unchained (Based on the major motion picture) and
Legend of Zorro teaming up. Well, director
Quentin Tarantino who created the character of Django in Django Unchained starring Jamie Fox has exchanged emails with Sony head
Amy Pascal on possibly bringing Django and Zorro on screen together! Now this kind of crossover is actually pretty exciting not like that 22 Jump Street/Men in Black nonsense we also heard Sony was developing. First Amy Pascal emailed the director about wanting to work with him in the future specifically a Django/Zorro teamup (via
Business Insider)
HELLO AMY P HERE...
HOW ARE YOU? I WANNA TALK ABOUT
DJANGO/ZORRO WHEN YOU FEEL LIKE IT ...
ALSO I STILL WANNA DO THE DION BROTHERS
AND JUST BECAUSE I DIDN'T GET TO BE A
PART OF HATEFUL DOESN'T MEAN IM EVER
GONNA STOP WANTING TO WORK WITH YOU
(AND HARVEY)
BEST ALWAYS...AMY
In which Tarantino replied
"D/Z could be really fun!" this of course is not any type of confirmation that a movie will happen and last time something of Tarantino's leaked he had a melt down and almost completely stopped production on his next film
The Hateful Eight.
Synopsis of Django/Zorro #1
Set several years after the events of Django Unchained, Django/Zorro #1 finds Django again pursuing the evil that men do in his role as a bounty hunter. Since there's a warrant on his head back east, he's mainly been plying his trade in the western states. After safely settling his wife, Broomhilda, near Chicago, he's again taken to the road, sending her funds whenever he completes a job. It's by sheer chance that he encounters the aged and sophisticated Diego de la Vega - the famed Zorro - and soon finds himself fascinated by this unusual character, the first wealthy white man he's ever met who seems totally unconcerned with the color of Django's skin... and who can hold his own in a fight. He hires on as Diego's "bodyguard" for one adventure and is soon drawn into a fight to free the local indigenous people from a brutal servitude, discovering that slavery isn't exclusive to black folks. In the course of this adventure, he learns much from the older man (much like King Schultz) and, on several occasions, even dons the mask and the whip... of The Fox!
