Quentin Tarantino almost directed Casino Royale, and while it would undoubtedly have been one of the best James Bond movies, it would also have ruined Daniel Craig's tenure as 007. Tarantino is one of the most talked about filmmakers working today, having directed some of the most celebrated movies of the 1990s and the 21st Century, including Pulp Fiction, Inglourious Basterds, and Django Unchained. The director is known for his witty pop culture references, extreme violence, and expansive genre-bending narratives. Given his reputation for writing and directing wholly original movies and demanding total creative freedom from studios, Tarantino isn't exactly a director-for-hire.
