We have some good and bad news regarding Quentin Tarantion’s film, Hateful Eight. The bad news is that the film has officially been scrapped by Tarantino after the script was leaked online a few months back. The good news though, is that if you’re in Los Angeles on April 24, you will have a chance to see a very rare live reading of the script by Tarantino. There is no word on if there will be other actors there reading with Tarantino, or if he will handle it all himself, but what we do know, is that this has the potential to be epic.
Apparently there will be no live devices allowed at this reading, so the only account on how good or bad this is will be from fans that are able to attend. If you’re interested in catching this rare event, it will be going down at the Bing Theatre as part of the LACMA Film Independent.
More details after the jump.

Hateful Eight centered on the rising tension that develops after a blizzard diverts a stagecoach from its route and traps a pitiless and mistrustful group which includes a competing pair of bounty hunters, a renegade Confederate soldier and a female prisoner in a saloon in the middle of nowhere.
